Every now and then, it would pop up the message that I had performed an illegal operation and it was shutting down. It usually did that when I was in the middle of writing. Lucily, I'd only lose whatever was new. <BR/><BR/>I back up like a fiend. It's on my hard drive, two flash drives and burned onto a CD.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you're back up and running, but I'm sorry you lost your work. That always hurts.N.J.Waltershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18099894498766052188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809516973071462364.post-6673559448030614842008-10-13T17:34:00.000-05:002008-10-13T17:34:00.000-05:00For someone who has gone to hell and back with com...For someone who has gone to hell and back with computer problems you remain remarkably sane with sense of hunour intact. I call in help when my computer acts up because I don't have a clue how to fix the darn thing. Hell,I just bougt a new phone and our visiting granddaughter had to get it working properly. These young people seem to know everything about everything.

And all these horror stories just remind me how tied up we are electronically, but I wouldn;t go back to paper and pen or typewriter (typewriter?) for anything.

I'd just added ten more pages to my WIP and although I had saved my work - 250+ pages - I hadn't backed anything up for three weeks - stupid me! All of a sudden she began screaming "Mom!". I rushed upstairs in time to find a virus downloading, my computer beeping, and a message taking up my entire screen flashing - YOUR COMPUTER MEMORY IS BEING ERASED!!! I somehow managed to control my panic long enough to press the power button and hold it down for 10 seconds - the only way to shut the thing off. Fortunately I didn't touch anything else. Talk about having a heart attack! I immediately called my computer geek son and he explained what happened and helped me restart without downloading the virus. Here's the thing - apparently there is a virus embedded in a fake (but very realistic) site that actually mimics Youtube - you think you are on Youtube and the streaming video is exactly the same, but the site downloads a virus and the minute you try to touch a single key on your keyboard, your memory is toast. Oh my God! What a near disaster. Now I'm backing my work up twice a day.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16298113757853553806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809516973071462364.post-59478839550081736842008-10-13T09:52:00.000-05:002008-10-13T09:52:00.000-05:00Ackkkkkk!This happened to me two years ago when my...Ackkkkkk!<BR/><BR/>This happened to me two years ago when my laptop died.

Once lost ten chapters of a ms. and I cried for two weeks. I was just learning about this computer stuff and hadn't backed up correctly so nothing was saved. NOTHING. I had to start from scratch.Regina Carlyslehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316730032624449669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809516973071462364.post-30658909368260548742008-10-13T09:13:00.000-05:002008-10-13T09:13:00.000-05:00I feel your pain.

Just three days later, MY laptop died. Thank goodness our computers are networked. My old stuff is backed up on box.net, but my WIPS are not.<BR/><BR/>So now we just have the dh's laptop, shared three ways, and I have a book to write and 2 sets of galleys to go through!MJFredrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06881706931355203700noreply@blogger.com
