odinsupreme Posted January 3, 2003 #1 Share Posted January 3, 2003 Hi all, Maybe some of you are wondering why I haven't updated the site yet (mysterydatabase.com) well.. I did something really stupid and now probabably all the data on my harddrive is lost.. Including the site... I didn't had a backup so the only version is currently online. I get a faster Internet connection somewhere this week and I can download the site again (I hope..). I also lost lots of other important data, including things from school. But thank got I already handed those in. Odin (ashamed of his stupidity) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saru Posted January 3, 2003 #2 Share Posted January 3, 2003 What happened - were you trying to set up a duel boot system with '98 and XP ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted January 3, 2003 #3 Share Posted January 3, 2003 I'm sorry to hear that Odin. Hope you can sort it out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odinsupreme Posted January 3, 2003 Author #4 Share Posted January 3, 2003 SaRuMaN, Yes, I tried to do that, the only stupid thing was that I already had Win XP and then I tried to add 98 to it... Then something went wrong with the disk usage (win98 removed some NTFS files if I am correct). Odin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloated Corpse Posted January 4, 2003 #5 Share Posted January 4, 2003 Windows 98 cannot operate on an NTFS partition. Partition magic is a good tool to set up partitions on a hard drive that is already set up, although I am not 100% sure that it can remove the NTFS coding. An alternative to such a tragic loss while tryin to make a dual boot machine is a seperate hard drive with a removable hard drive slot allowing you to switch hard drives. Well thats my two cents.
