i haven’t looked at that, all i know is that both before and after vista doesn’t agree with something about backups…

 

once a week, i turn it on, boot into vista, plug in my backup drive (usb), go to the backup thing, do the full backup, try the safely remove (never works), turn computer completely off, unplug usb hdd, power computer back on, and all of a sudden it won’t make it through bios if the monitor is plugged in. really random. one time it even somehow overrode the hardswitch on my power supply. I had to pull the cord itself before I could kill my computer. it scares me. i don’t liek it. it might be hardware almost failing, might not. doesn’t happen if i don’t do this whole backup routine step by step. to get it to boot again i have to pull every connection on the back, let it sit a few minutes, and plug it all back in. then XP works just liek always.
