That was what I was going to do before the guy had me restore it back to factory settings.. so now I don't have anything to store back to my harddrive, its all gone!!! All the pics of Aub and Kota from when they were babies.... He said something about that I wouldn't be able to store it or something, I don't remember his reasoning... but I did ask him about it.. But when I try to get my money back I will bring it up about me trying to store it on an external hard drive. Thanks though! |

I have ALL my pics ...my card and label orders..... not to mention years of work on my computer so can't afford to do anything till I back it all up - I was going to do it to DVD but holy cow - It would have taken me 4 days superstar - sorry you lost everything - That guy should have STRESSED that would happen when you did a full factory restore |
I know, he should have. Hes going to get getting yelled at after I yell at the hp ppl tomorrow!!! lol |
I've always owned a DELL and never had a problem. Even the company I work for uses DELL as some of the software we use has problems running on HP. One company I worked for went from DELL to HP and it wasn't long before they replaced everything back to DELL. And Walmart and Sam's now sell DELL so you can get some good deals. We always buy direct from DELL because we get the Shell discount since hubby works there. I am so sorry about your loss though. I hope you get things worked out soon! Good luck! |

I have also heard good thigns about dell.. The computer idiot and hp told me something like.. if you are having problems with your dell that you can contact them and they can work on your computer over the phone, is that true? |

You most definitely need to have an external hard drive. From what I understand, you have so many valuable things that it would be disastrous to lose any of it. An 80GB would be fine for you with the pictures and all, but if you want to play it safe go for the 500GB one and then you really do not have to worry. They also have 320GB. Look for the best price. Also it is easier to recall them when you plug the USB in and keep the HD as an extension. Shuffling through a CD (and just the arduous task of saving to a CD) can be more difficult. The external Hard Drive becomes Drive E: in addition to Local Drive C; (which stays there also) on your desktop (probably under MY COMPUTER) .. Drive D: is your disk drive, where the CDs go. You do not lose that either. all you have to do is right click START , EXPLORE and then either use COPY TO or SEND TO {drive E:}. It may take a while but you do not have to monitor it. But be careful, the only reason I have 3 is because I bid on so many and then won 3 of them. I did not plan to get 3. But I did not want to back out of any of the contracts. Good Luck! |
THANK YOU !!! I have 22GB on my C Drive and the smaller size would work perfect - This is so helpful !! I had talked to a co-worker about my computer and she was going to have me bring mine in so her husband could fix it without restoring it - but if I do it this way I can do it myself - :D :D Are they expensive ? I'm moving in 3 weeks and am really REALLY trying to watch the pennies EDITED !! I'm such a dork - I went to your links - they're SO cheap - are those prices for real ?? |
I am so sorry! It is so very frustrating to have computet trouble. |
