So my computer has been misbehaving all week. I’ve probably installed Windows like 5 times in the past 2-3 days. Done all kind of crazy things to try and get things working. Started to panic when it seemed that I would lose all of my personal stuff. And ran an 18 hour disk scan that didn’t find anything wrong. Prior to running the 18 hour scan I ran a brief scan that went insanely slow and listed a bunch of “cable errors” so before I ran the full scan I swapped the cable. After the scan I was able to backup all my stuff successfully. I wiped the drive clean and reinstalled Windows. I even did full formats instead of quick formats…
Anyway, things seem to be running smooth so far. Now it’s just a mater of installing all the stuff I use. I’ll probably do just the essential stuff for now and see how stable the machine is over the next few days.
