    Default Billy McGee off line

    Sending message from mobile. Computer hard drive gave up the ghost. Can't get it fixed. No funds for new system. Maybe gone for sometime.

    Hello Billy,
    Was wondering why I didn't hear back from you. Bad luck - been there myself. If it's just the hard drive that has gone you can replace it without needing anything else. 1TB & 2TB drives from about £50.
    Hope you get sorted soon.

    Regards
    Hugh

    Would way in £50 as a starter, pos between a few of us we could assist in a repair, renewal etc. Was not going to post this as sometimes it seems like charity etc. I take it as a debt many of us owe and we need Billy back on line ASAP. K

    If the computer cannot be rescued as Mike states ask the compo shop to take out the hard drive before scrapping and insert into an external hard drive shell. Still need a computer, but should save most of your content for future use.
