KR busted my hard drive!!!!!!!!

grizz · 05-01-2008, 07:57 PM

DAMNIT!!!
My computer keeps crashing and my hard drive is making a psycho clicking sound.

I was up to the patching stage in KR when my comp froze up. The drive started clicking.
I can't even believe I'm online right now. Won't be for long I'm sure.

Now I hate KR even more.

Instead of posting about your impending Doom you should probably be backing up everything you can.

Yes, backup NOW!!!!! The drive sounds like it has an impending death coming, and KR has nothing to do with it.

Clicking, scratching, ticking type noises from a hard drive is an indication that your hard drive is on it's last leg.

Wh-wh-whadabout if yer puter goes "Rrrrrr-rrrrr-rrrr" like when ya rev the motorcycle. Mine makes that kinda noise but I kinda like it cause it scares da dog.

LOL Pennywise.
Actually mine does that on occasion, I think one of the fans is on the way out.
I don't think KR itself broke your harddrive, but the intense harddrive activity during patching, might've pushed an allready failing drive nearer the edge.

More like, the hard drive read and looked at what was put on it and decided to commit suicide.

I have still yet to see it, but I must admit, it's starting to get to the point where I want to see it just to get grossed out. Does that make me sadistic? Or just moronic?

I figured that since you've witnessed it and lived, I could too.

**Adam** · 06-01-2008, 08:38 AM

Exactly, I did it without any army training and survived.....*twitches*

I may just bite the bullet and click the link. I've already got the twitch so there's probably no other serious reprocussions.
