Who here remembers the origin of this thread?

You'll never guess, but I formated my C: partition this morning, was shoving
W98FE into it, and when it went to the reboot... NO FRIGGIN' DRIVE! The same
seemed to have happen to my master on the same bus, so I'm suspecting: A)
Controller is being funky. (Possible.) B) MBR getting messed up. (I guess so.)
C) W98 is releasing a time bomb. (Even I don't think so.) D) A Trojan got
through two years ago.

What I'm suspecting right now, is A) Controller/Cable issues. The BIOS doesn't
even see them, so how could it be anything but? The first victim is a
1.something G Seagate, and this slave drive is a 8.4 G Bigfoot. (Seagate too?) 

This is only a hobby. This is only a hobby. I don't think we're in Kansas any
more, Toto... Hang on a minute!

Arrr!!! Film at eleven.
