Hi A tale
Bought my Son a super games machine Feb 06. With hindsight they 'Panrix' UK had oversold the system. ie They assumed that when they had sent it for review, (Dec) it, ( ie the component cost) would be much cheaper come Feb review. They went bust because they could not supply the system at the declared price. I was 1 of the lucky guys that got it. 'Alan' + 'Brat 1 & 2' enjoyed it big time. I'm a very happy punter. I had the foresight to run 'Acronis' on it so that I could recover problems. After all they 'Alan + Brat1 & 2' could(would) cock this up big time. Panrix has gone bust so no help from them. ******** It was cocked up big time. Could not even get the 'XP' recovery to work. Lets run 'Acronis' & restore the image back to a healthy state. Opps its a SATA drive, we do not recover from that!!!!!. The b------ds backed up to it!!!!!!!!! So why did they not tell me it would not work for a Sata drive???? Pissed OFF. BIG TIME. OK I was using Ver8 but it is *NOT* that old. *** Acttualy Ver8 would have recovered, however it displayed an error 'Can't find disk' which I thought meant the HD was down, so I went for a full restore. Hey at the end of the day I have now got the sound system performing as it should! The moral, of course, is a backup is worthless unless you can restore. So take your backup, change 1 thing, then restore. Did it work???? God knows how often I have told my clients this!!!!!!!!! -- Andrew Stirling 01250 874580 http://www.calcpay.co.uk HMRC Accredited UK payroll program _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
