Woke up on New Years day to find that my PC had fallen from my desk, case bent and lost 2 of 3 drives. No I did not drink nor did any drinking happen in my house, actually the kids and I were in bed by 10:30PM EST! One of my drivers (Segate 250GB) was my game drive, it now makes noises when you shake it and smokes when you boot it *lol* bye bye games and the other drive (WD 150GB) was my primary windows boot drive. It was fine until this morning when it started throwing S.M.A.R.T errors and corruption pop-ups when accessing files etc. Long story short I am now down to 1 WD 1TB drive for everything Oh to boot my 1TB was my data drive for everything else, which some how lost its partition record and no matter what utility I used could not be recovered (even gparted etc). So, my New Year started off with a bang loosing all my games (can be re-downloaded), my primary boot drive (no biggie) and my data (like ~5 years of stuff *sigh*). :drunk::tear::drunk::tear: Hope everyone else had a better start to the New Year then I did!
No clue how it fell, my bedroom is right above my office and I never heard a thing. Up and running on my 1TB drive, but need to back another ~150GB drive to be my windows partition.
Got any pets? I don't know how these things would happen, I've got a NZXT Phantom - built like a tank.
No pets, just kids but not them. Chalk it up to WUSH (Weird Unexpected Shit Happens) I used to keep mine on the floor until a month or so ago when I was having vid card issues, pain keep picking up etc.. Also it does not get as dusty this way LOL
Na. It is a simple matter of physics and energy transfer. Kinetic energy of headboard travels to wall, moved down the wall and causes vibrations on the floor. The floor transfers vibration to desk and the computer tower ends up falling off. Case closed
ROFL nice one, but I was home alone and we don't have a headboard just a California King Bed frame, box spring and mattress *lol*
lol doctorie. Wow that sucks! That's pretty creepy too... if you have no pets, and no drinking happened, I'd have to agree with Itherael. lol It was either aliens, or your house is haunted... jk. But really though, that's weird.
Could've been frost quakes. They shake the whole house. We experienced them here in southern Ontario, so Trice might have too since he lives in NY. Frost quakes are when temperatures get so cold, the moisture in the ground freezes, expands, applies pressure to surrounding rocks and cracks them, producing some shock waves.
It's the NSA trying to steal ur porn, they hired a clumsy contractor. That, or the frost quakes, but they'd probably have woken u up. Could be the debut of a sinkhole in the neighborhood.
Chances are they would've woken him up. They woke up everyone around me, but oddly enough, they didn't wake me up (I was tired), so who knows.
