Just a note to anyone looking for me.
My recent problems with Nvidia Drivers, I believe, caused a BSOD/Reboot loop on my Machine.
I couldn't get into Safe Mode, Nor Could I access Chkdsk or other tools on my Win7DVD. BSOD would always find it's way into my life.
Well, I finally got the Install Disk to come up and I had it reinstall Win7 on my computer.
Without asking, ceremony, or anything, Win7 formatted my C Drive rather than overwrite the os and leave my stuff intact.
I lost my runtimes, a disheartening problem but not the kicker.
The Kicker is, I had my pc apart during the diagnosis stage, and in putting it back together I decided to take off my CPU fan so I could load drives into the drive bays in my very small case.
Reassembling the PC has been frustrating, as now every time I have it back together, it won't start...no Bios screen, no video. I belive that the cpu is now "Loose" and the only way I'm writing this now is having the c drive on my desktop and nothing else in the machine.
These two factors together - I hate everything, and everything I enjoy doing on the computer is out of my grasp indefinately and frankly, I'm thinking maybe it's all for the best.
I'll be here and there but having this half computer is a bit like trying to run a marathon with crutches.
Farewell, for now
