BSOD's don't cause you to lose anything. If you can restart your PC and get into Windows you shouldn't have lost a thing.  :unsure: :thinking:

I lost everything in my hard drive though. Even my videos recorded from my tuner. :(

Then you had more than just a simple BSOD. Your hard drive bit the dust.  :yes:

My VAIO is only 3 years old it shouldn't have these problems.

BTW, I am going to New York City tonight. I might be bringing my laptop and my tuner, so I can record and share their intellistar for you guys :)

Well, more than half of the unavailable songs you obtained you got via email, so you should still be able to listen to them. I always save my emails with songs attached for this very same reason. :yes:

Yeah, I don't know if I care about that name too much either. I preferred your older name.

Actually, computers around 3-5 years of age (if you're lucky, it can last more than that) can start to suffer those sort of problems. With a normal BSOD (and I've gotten several in the past), you don't lose data. Sounds like to me your HD had a brain fart (i.e it's beginning to show signs of wear and tear). If you continue to have problems like that, then it would be time to look into getting a new computer. :yes:

Uhh no, simply replace the hard drive. A "drive fart" certainly doesn't constitute buying a new computer, unless the drive costs more than half the price of the computer.

Do you think Victor knows how to replace a hard drive in a computer, let alone a laptop? ;)

It certainly ain't rocket science. Its typically in documentation. Worst case scenario, take it to Geek Squad. But buying a new computer just because of that is absolutely insane.
