so, I finally started to edit my videos from me and some friends' traintravelling in Europe from april and may this year... we had almost edited the first tape, and wanted to see how it looked...starting the preview, the computer starts working real hard, and I realise that I had not saved our work... then, of course, the program (MGI VideoWave 4) shuts down, and all our work disappears in a second.
PC's just suck.
the picture shows my disappointment.

yeah, but I don't trust those cracked software either... premiere has crashed for me too...
now, I've got no motivation at all to start edit those holiday-tapes...it's more than 9 hours of film! the tapes just lie on my desk, collecting dust and irritate me. give me some motivation!

wow that sucks....
yeah, i think if i ever get a good sum of money i'm just going to ditch this PC (i need a new comp anyways) and seriously think of switching to a Mac - i've used Macs before, and I've never had any problems with crashes, fatal bluescreen errors or such with them.

I recently had a hard drive crash. I moved most of my stuff to my new drive, but had to move half of it in DOS. It's a bit of a pain when you have thousands of mp3s with names like 'aperf~16'.... but at least I saved most of my stuff. Now my computer just likes to randomly crash for no reason that I can find. I think it's time for a new one...

It's not like Apple makes the hard drives. If you've got one that just barely passed quality control it will die on your Mac just as quickly as on your PC or Commodore 64.

If you're going to put a large part of your life on a computer - either learn how to make proper backups or go back to instant photos and carving on rocks.

my harddrive crashed some time ago, and I had some video on it, that I didn't have anywhere else. the guys at the support said that the computer was screwed, but a friend to my mom fixed so I could save the video.
you can't trust those support-guys, every time I called them I got a different advice what to do... and I called like 15 times, not kidding...

yeah - my harddrive has the majority of the last 3 years of my creative life on it. trust me, it's like a vital organ for me now.
hope things get better for you, dear.

I had a HD crash some time ago, so now I've got a DVD burner and I back things up. So far I've got five 4.5GB discs worth of XXX-movies. They sell well at work though :)
