I’m sure you are ALL just at the edge of your seats waiting for the next episode of “Tania’s computer troubles adventure”. heh…. riiight…
well, went out and got new power supply.. another 430 watt Antec. Installed it. fired it up. everything kosher. decide to put the “dead” 13gb back in. it spins up. reboot couple times, no hiccups. Decide to put the really REALLY dead and stiff 36 back in. it spins up. no hiccups. reboot couple times, no problems, no “failed to write delay” , no “can’t access partition” messages, no “CLANK ZWOOOOOSH CLANK ZWOOOOOOOSH” sounds.
Still it’s been 2 days. so I won’t breathe easy or put any valuable data on those drives for a while until they prove to me they want to continue residing inside gomjabbar … =)
( . o O hmmm… I think i should put my radeon video card back in next and see if it is shocked back into life again as well.)
…now i’m left with a brand spanking shiney new 120gb drive i probably never really needed to get in the first place….
