>the look of the forum trial was more similar to the Fusetalk forums that what this side looks like. Based on only that knowledge, a lot of people assumed that it was on the Fusetalk platform. I, for one, have been convinced of that until now. I was one of the few able to access the forums at all, and determined enough to struggle keeping the forums running, commenting and giving answers to users in need. It was a nightmare, but it showed a great strength and unity among users/hosts. I should hate to see it all be lost. I, as is Don, am afraid that the forums will lose many good people if the appearance of these forums is shattered. I found the very appearance very difficult, tiring, and detrrent. ... View more

Claudio, I am. About a month ago, the old C drive died; before that there were issues with the D drive, and it had become impossible to burn backups. Since then, multiple attempts to start up on new drives and get everything out of the old ones. Post #357 was the first thing I did on my first time back on the forums. Now everything is fine, with images of the entire C new drive on the new D drive, and only a few things to get out of the old C drive, which requires its going to a deep freezer for a while. ...
