I lost my c: drive last night, trying to update my ipod updater software to v1.1! Unbelievable how bad the crash was - it would not let me boot. Upon every boot it would try to check the disk and fail at about 30% of the check and restart, and repeat itself.

I tried several things and finally, after about 8 hours, I think I may have something to get going. It was restored from a ghost image taken at the beginning of December 2005! :-(

I had to install Firefox, Greasemonkey, Scripts and extensions all over again :-(

Anyway, I may be back in action now. Fingers crossed.
