It's been a bad couple of days for my computer and I.
Some times it runs slow, or a program stops responding. When I do a google search, the first Link I click on never takes me to the right site. Its always a redirect. Finally, it only runs in safe mode. When I try to run it in normal mode, it's almost completely unresponsive. I HAVE to export my messages in windows mail. It was doing it extremely slowly, and there is over 6000 messages. After 5100 messages I got an error that said something about disc 4 failure imminent, press f1.
So now I Think I'm fawked. I really don't want to have to try and come up with the $$ for a new laptop. More importantly, I don't know how to save all my messages. They won't export on safe mode.
My plan was to back up my files and do a restore on my laptop to clean it out, but the imminent hard disk failure message threw a curveball at me.
I was wondering if the message came because it was running so long trying to export my mail. Wondered if a virus was causing the error to get generated.
For now, I'm posting with my phone
