Hi all, my name is Bert. Well, Ive had my computer for about a year now and just a month ago, it started giving me lots of problems. First, its Vista. Second, I have over 10,000 songs on there and lots of other personal writings as well. I had customized my computer, had all the shortcuts on my desktop etc etc etc and one day, when I turned it back on, everything was gone. Everything I had customized was gone, and subsequently my music and files were also gone. I was shattered to be honest. Well, I made a search on my computer and found my music and files on some other folder and I copied all the files back into my original "My Documents" folder. So as I finished doing that, i re-customized everything and for a bit everything was back to normal. So I turned off my computer and woke up the next day and turned it back on and everything was gone again! My files were gone and everything I had customized had disappeared. I searched for my files once again and yes, they popped up but to this day I am unable to open and access them. A message that reads "Power refers to a location that is unavailable. it could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted , or that you are connected to the internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location." So everytime I've tried to open something, that pops up. It's frustrating and sad because I have absolutely no idea how this might have happened. So here I am today hoping I can get some sort of help. Thanks and thanks for anyone that took the time to read this and thanks for the ones that will try and help.
