I guess you have learned a valuable lesson: Back up your critical
info, like documents. . If you have a floppy drive in your computer,
documents don't take up that much space and can easily be backed up
(copied to).
Or if you no floppy drive, and just have a read/write CD, you can
still use that. Blank CDs nowadays are free if you find a good rebate
sale. (I just bought a 100 pack of Memorex CDs and a 100 pack of
jewel cases, and after the in-store instant rebates, and mail-in
rebates, it costs me nothing. 0. Nada. Actually, I even profited
one cent, though minus of course the two stamps to send in the
mail-ins.)
Programs you have CD, or stuff you can download again isn't as
important to back up.
And obviously you are a newbie. In using these newsgroups anyway:
Using all capital letters is a no-no. It means you are shouting.
Well.... maybe you are freaking out and shouting.
