I rescued a bit of unreplaceable staff, like my thesis, old essays, saved games (very important ), and a few letters and emails.

I don't know what's the matter with the CD... It doesn't automatically start (I have checked the connection and jumper switch), and the "My Computer" doesn't open. Both time, I get blue screen with fatal error messages.

So, I am going to exchange my old hard drive, as my new drive is faster (as you know), run FDISK, reformat, maybe add another memory, then reinstall.

Is this the right order?
