thank you for your responses...
EDITED TO FIX errors:
Computer Question...My home computer's motherboard and hard drive are dead...non-functioning...I took my computer to Staples to hopefully get it fixed...That's what they told me...my ? is this: I have TONS of pics from Digital Camera stored in the "My Pictures" folder...are they stored on the HARD DRIVE? or are they stored somewhere else where I'll be able to access them again once/if I get my computer fixed? Thank you for any response...
**bracing myself for the devastating news that all my precious pics are gone forever...:o(**
1|1|always back them up on a flash disk, or if you saved them on drive d they might be ,other wise there is a great chance they are lost, but i had gotten a bad virus one time killed the drive and the tech was good and found most of my files but learnt the hard way as well :( hopefully the tech can get most of them back for you|MyCat|mazashatat11@hotmail.com|14:14:27|04/12/2010|

But it can be costly.
When you have photos &/or other priceless/important data on your computer, it's always best to keep it backed up to a CD or flash key drive. Using online photo storage sites like Photobucket, etc. is also a good idea.
Please identify yourself in 1st email w/name/username. Due to recent problem trades, if I haven't traded w/you before, I will probably require you send your end 1st or I'll need LEGIT trade references/feedback. I will be happy to provide the same. IF you plan to hold your end til you've received mine, I will need to know that IMMEDIATELY, BEFORE trade is finalized.
