Hi Khaled. I actually purchased Norton Ghost 3 years ago, and I tried using it on my laptop and had major difficulties with it. Didn’t understand the instructions either. So, it’s now deep in a drawer, gathering dust. Glad you knew how to use it, though; sounds like a good plan.

Thanks John; major panic for awhile there.

Hey, another big time recommendation other than mine; thanks Ajith! It turned out to be a lifesaver for me.

Hi Mitch I have had a similar thing happen a number of times now, only to find the computer repair man unable to recover my files, which he said were gone. Now I have resolved the issue myself, I have a separate hard disk which I have made a copy of the C drive onto using Norton Ghost. When I have a problem, I turn the PC off, plug the second hard disk in and boot off that, I’m then able to go in and run a virus scan. When the scan is complete I can just retrieve the files onto the second hard disk and I have no down time. 99% of things are recoverable, and I haven’t lost any data this way (have had to use the system several times over the past 2 years), I have partitioned my C drive and try and keep as much of my data on the D drive as possible, so its safe if there is a virus. What’s more once you have retrieved all your data from the old C drive, you can just use norton ghost to rebuild it once you have recovered all your emails, documents and favourites etc (for the price of a spare hard disk and Norton Ghost it saves a lot of stress and down time) Hope it helps for next time.

I’m happy to hear the good news that you recovered your data, Mitch. I know how traumatic it can be when you realize that you just did something and now…Oh, no!

All the best,

I have myself used this sometime back and it really saved me recover piecefully from a crash. I only lost hardly 30 or 40 out 2000+ digital photographs and a few word docs and a couple of installed EXE programs then.

It’s a cool product!

You can find it here, Sire: http://www.imjustsharing.com/tweet-my-blog/ It was only on a blog post, though, truthfully, I should add it along the side somewhere.

Say Mitch, last time I was on I notice this Twitter Banner, and I looked into it and it seemed pretty cool. I came back here to join as I figured you were affiliated with it but it’s gone. I presume because it remembers my IP address? Anyway mate point me in the right direction.

Ain’t that the truth! And guess what; seems I did have all my data files backed up on my external hard drive after all; found them all this evening.

That was what I meant. I love computers, but when they decide to play up they can be a real pain in the rear end.

Well, I don’t know about todo and Twitter, but I went to Twitter to kind of rant about losing all my files and one of the Twitter followers offered the idea, something I should have known because I had to do the same sort of thing about 5 or 6 years ago.

Was that all to do with the twitter when you lost email data and such? If so, I am glad you got everything back. Reckon I will have to keep this post in mind just in case it happens to me.
