MY COMPUTER CRASHED!

[~FireTap]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! My computer harddrive just crashed (i'm on my brothers computer right now), and unless it's working tomorrow morning. I won't be able to design sigs, until i get ps installed again.... get all those brushes I had, and all that stuff.

Guys this completely sucks! This is how it happened:

Ok, when i sat down at my computer desk (after watching Oceans 11) i moved the mouse, and Norton AntiVirus was running. It had just finished and i got that pop-up that said "Program Not responding, End Task or Cancel?" I did endtask, and the whole computer froze (like every computer does when you click End Task). I was sitting there for about 2 minutes waiting for it to unfreeze when i finally decided to re-boot. I re-booted and a blue screen came up that said there has been a problem while booting windows xp home. Finally, I decided to get my dad up to take a look at it, and he said that my hard drive probably crashed. Then, I was really off! I was talking to this guy at staples (he worked there) and he said after a few months with his dell.... his computer crashed, and I just thought that it probably wouldn't happen to me. Now, I'm really po'ed. My dad said that he would have some technicians take a look at it or whatever. Gosh i just hope i can still do everything with my cpu.

Any suggestions!?!

buy a new computer

what mystikal said. if your hard drive crashed, you cant really recover the data unless you had backups stored somewhere, so you either buy a new computer, or get a new hard drive, depending on if it was just limited to the HD, or to the entire comp.

Well, the sad part is that this computer was only 4 months old... so i luckily still have the matainence warranty on it and everything, it's just I lost a bunch of valuble info that i have to replace. My dad took a closer look at it, and saw that it may have just overheated (im not overclocking anything at all either)..... so i hope it's just that and i still have the info and everything....

Pray for me! lol :mellow:
