Butterboy is down for now

A catastrophic failure of PC requires major works to be undertaken.  I don't know how long repairs will take at this stage.

Wish me luck.


See you all soon...

    Thanks for what you do! ... and take the repairs sure and slow. I'm already looking at updating this nearly 15 year old Mac. I hope you had backups offline somewhere (Backblaze!)

    Learned that lesson some years ago. Crashed, tried to fix, still NG, took to a pro. Luckily he was able to backup my HD files but the rest of the PC was toast. Bought a new HP desktop PC and 2 Western Digital 14TB portable hard drives.
    Hope you can recover BB.

    Butterboy, You have my sympathy. I suffered a recent near miss on my main machine (thankfully a reboot in safe mode luckily resolved it for me). If you find you are missing music archives as a result of this problem just produce a list when you're ready and I'm sure between myself and other regular visitors we can recover most of any lost music for you.
