After my Hard Drive crash of June 2001, last week. I am finally back up and running, all programs installed,drivers in place and back on line.
I have a CD Burner and made the fatal mistake of not backing up on a regular basis. A mistake that will not happen again. The files I had to recreate the most would not have been on the back-up disk yet, but I would have not lost so much other data.
Glad to be back

Isn't that a sinking Feeling, Jimmy? I have for years tried to keep backups it is difficult. My workaround is to put all my job files on disks(I started with big floppies for each customer, graduated to sm floppies and zips as the years went by. That way when I change systems or computers, all I have to load is my programs. It works for me. Bill
