Has anyone missed this and gotten burned?
My machine was accruing bad sectors,
Eh, I've never found system restore to actually help.QuoteMy machine was accruing bad sectors, Do you mean that your hard drive is reporting bad sectors? If so, you should immediately replace your hdd if you have any useful non-backed up data - your hdd is on its way out.Internal hard drives are cheap and easily ordered over the internet. A local techy friend or the internet can help you reinstall windows or clone your existing drive onto the new one.I use win10 on my one windows computer and it works fine: it removes most of the annoying things about win8 and keeps some of the few useful changes.
Thanks.Yeah I figure it's on the way out. I'm just trying to stretch the machine, kinda like a car with over 200K miles. I've put some money aside and some data in the cloud. Really, my machine is mostly for e-mail, web surfing, games, and forums. I can everything but the games on my Fire, and those I have on Disks or STEAM storage.
So - I've messed around about as long as I can without getting stuck in a rush of people downloading at the last second - does anyone know of anything I should look out for tomorrow, like anything they don't tell me I have to do to keep the nasty thing from auto-installing?
