Sometimes all you need to do is restart the computer to get access to the things that fail. Have you tried that? o__O I actually hate restarting my computer, but I don't even know why...

Have done that several times, have reseated all cables, have tried same drive on my laptop... same thing. (thanks)

I've read that the drive can be salvaged out of its enclosure and mounted in the computer itself, but I don't know how to do that, oy... It's failed on me once before, but somehow I got it to work again. If I should happen to work again... somehow... I'm going to have to knuckle down and burn a zillion DVDs to get the stuff off of it. I've been lazy to just store stuff on it...

(am watching John Mayer on Austin City Limits and am starting to feel a tiny bit better, heh)

If there's anything you need that I've been downloading, I'll be happy to copy it to DVD for you. *huggles*

Ack!! Sharon, m'dear, but there's so much... like all of series like NANA, Kiba, the final eps - not sure how many - of Naruto and all of Shippuuden so far, the PoT OVAs, Gintama, er... I have a list somewhere, but it's EVERYTHING... the only thing I've burned off recently is Bleach, I think.

I just realized all my carefully collected AMVs are there, too... oy. But I haven't yet given up hope for this hard drive. Since I had trouble with it once before... and the computer does see it... and maybe the hard drive can be salvaged and reinstalled into the computer... *sigh*

There's just so MUCH... I probably had 3/4 of that drive full...

I can definitely help with some, if you can't get things working again. I have Kiba, Shippuuden, the PoT OVAs that Saizen released... and I may be able to get some of the rest, when you know exactly what you need. It may take me some time to burn it all, but I'll help with what I can.

Hopefully, you'll be able to get things working again. *crosses fingers*

(This is why I keep my MediaMax account. It's a pain in the ass, and not all the files work, but most of the time I can retrieve what I need.)

Thanks so much, dear! I haven't had time to poke with it any more than I have. Fortunately my laptop has a 320 GB HD, so I can save new episodes to that in the meantime... until I get that one back working or buy another external.

I do have a document listing the anime series that I have, but not sure if it includes non-burned works. It's on the desktop and I haven't had that up today. I do have some weird stuff that you probably don't have... like all of the Hard Gay live action "episodes", heh. So funny...

Oy, I just remembered... I have all of second season Heroes on there, too... and I know I have other stuff... ACK, WHY didn't I burn things when I was done collecting?????
