y'know it's no good when tech support swears at your computer

so yeah.... tuesday, everything’s great, i’m on my computer, and i turned it off when i went to bed....

and then wednesday, at school, i try to power it on, and i got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!!!!!  grrr.... windows wouldn’t boot up!  it just kept on saying “UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME”.  i asked all my tech-savvy students to take a look; none of them could figure it out.  meanwhile i was txting jayson the whole time to see if he could give me any tips on what to do… no luck there either.  the tech support dude who works at our school printed out a possible solution for me to try once i got home with my cds but that didn’t work either.

so late last night i called dell support and got some guy in new delhi.  he was very helpful and i did all that he asked me to do and at one point, we ran diagnostics.  everything was going fine until my computer started blaring at me, "ERROR 0142!!!!  ERROR 0142!!!!"

‘error 0142!” i told him, “what do i do now?”

and then i started laughing when he said “OH SHIT! turn the computer off”

yeah.... when tech support starts swearing at ur computer, u know that’s never good.  turns out my hard drive crashed because it wouldn’t let me re-install windows on it.  the bad news is that i lost everything since my last back-up about 1-2 weeks ago.  the good news is… nope, there isn’t any.  i have to wait 2-3 business days before i get a new hard drive, one without any of my information on it.  boooooo!!!

owning computers really sucks…

  2. hahha… yeah, i fixed it so that only the text i -wanted- to blink did… yup. that’s how my computer was “yelling” at me - and pretty loud beeping too!  darn thing and it’s broken hard drive…

    which, i wanna know, if anyone can explain to me - if my hard drive failed, where does the BIOS and the diagnostic tests get stored because they were still working....
