Laptop is back up and running! :-D

On a couple happy notes: I did remember to back up my playlist files. Yay! And, as my laptop as 2 hard drives, and the reset only wiped the C: drive and all my personal files were stored on the D: drive, I didn't have to transfer back everything!! :-) I did have to reinstall all my programs and stuff since they were running on C, but that's pretty much all done.

I did forget to note what add ons I had on my Firefox, so I might still be missing some. I'll come across them as I revisit web pages and stuff.

So, yeah. So far so good!

Ooh, having two hard drives is great. I had that on my old PC, so I kept all my files on the D drive, and only ran the programs/OS on the C drive, so if I had to reformat I didn't lose all my data.

Actually, from memory, I think I installed any programs that didn't come pre-packaged onto the D drive, too, so reformatting only affected the OS and everything else remained intact.

Yup. That's what I'm doing. It's turned out to be very handy. :-)

what a roller-coaster ride, the ups, the downs all leading up in a satisfying conclusion. Well done.

I know! Oy, this has been such a headache. But it should be all fixed. *fingers crossed*
