    HR127 this is what they are trying to do

    The value of this media is discourse, discussion, education, persuasion and most of all respect. @_CY_ thank you for taking a second look, evaluating, and posting a most gracious response. At the end of the day, I suspect all of us believe "a well informed citizenry, being necessary to the...

    Well, it appears my hard drive had cratered.

    @tyromeo55 is correct, sometimes the key is also included in the paperwork that was with the laptop in the original box. And if I were going to replace the drive and not the laptop, I would look to an SSD. It obviously could be smaller given your use (say 250GB) and @tyromeo55 is correct...

    Well, it appears my hard drive had cratered.

    I have seen the freezer trick that @Aries speaks of work on a couple of drives. Another short term trick that works sometimes is to remove the drive, hold it flat in your hand vertically and whip it forward (don't let go of it!) 2 or 3 times. You are trying to solve a problem that sometimes...

    Well, it appears my hard drive had cratered.

    The good news is on that laptop a physical Hard Drive Replacement is pretty easy. On many laptops they make it extremely hard...

    Well, it appears my hard drive had cratered.

    So there are advantages to an SSD that we can discuss. But first, let me ask you how much of that 1 TB HDD are you currently using? (If it was working)?

    Third Series Colt Woodsman Target Slide Issue

    No, it slides past the assembly lock and plunger. Here's three pictures, it won't slide won't backwards any further than the profile picture of the slide. The other two show an underneath view of the slide retracted as far back as I could pull the slide before it hangs.....

    Third Series Colt Woodsman Target Slide Issue

    Thanks Snattle .... I did watch that video earlier today because I thought it might enlighten me. I have removed the pin and the main spring housing and it is SUPPOSED to slide off just like he shows in the video.... No dice.... It slides loose until it doesn't and it just sticks and I am...

    Third Series Colt Woodsman Target Slide Issue

    I have a nice Colt Woodsman I am having an issue removing the slide from the frame and I am wondering if anyone has any expertise they would be willing to share. This is not the typical and common tear down issue of capturing the recoil spring or any type of reassembly problem. I have removed...

    Gun buy regret

    Ruger P89. I own several Ruger products and like many of them; however, that pistol just never worked for me. Big and Clunky.

    Card fraud

    Let me share something that is not "card fraud" but it is fraud that is easily done with an activity many people allow on their bank accounts. This is a true story. You provide your checking account number for an automatic payment withdrawal, or so that money can be regularly be deposited, or...

    Made the delivery driver girl cry today

    RockChalk - Not foolish at all! It's hard to make any money in the food industry right now and I always like to reward people who have the right attitude and go out of their way to do a great job. Nice gesture on your part (it's just money) - I'm sure it changed her whole day:clap3:

    Anybody get anything cool that is gun-related today?

    You peaked my interest in these guns when you “COMPLETED YOUR COLLECTION” :thumbup3: But at the rate your going there won’t be any of these left for the rest of us to buy!

    Question about Pre-Panic stupidity pricing.

    Agreed, generally speaking $5.00 per 100. When buying in quantity, I could do better than that at the gun show when buying 5,000 or 10,000 at a time.
