UPDATE: So we really have no idea what's wrong with the computer. It seems to be functional, but still acting sort of Off.

So... I think what I'm gonna do is look into buying a new one. I think my folks will happily help out, especially since I'm more than willing to have "help paying for laptop" be my Christmas gift this year

instead of whatever else I might have asked them for.

wtf...

good luck ;; I hope you can get something easily

For now, I'll try to get this computer back in working order so that I can at least use it to carry on with work and tags and maybe hunting down some things that I had downloaded within the past year

so that I can start building up from scratch. Won't be possible for the original art files, but most other things I'm sure I can salvage one way or another.

Other than that, I'll focus this week on looking for a new laptop and being VERY FUCKING CAREFUL to back everything up.

With any luck I'll be back on tonight like normal so NO MORE 3DS TAGS AT LEAST /fingers crossed

Headin' home now!

drive safe D:

faulty computer. #1 fear of digital artists D;

/HUG

Equality Bird : 8( YEAH that's the thing. That's why I think I'm gonna need a new one.

If I have to wonder when or whether or not it's gonna crap out again, it's almost as good as useless for work.

I mean, I AM gonna be backing up MUCH more fervently from now on.

BUT...

yes, backup v important
