There must be intelligent life down here

Kablam!

My work PC has exploded. It was inevitable. The hard drive has been making strange noises every time I check/download my email for a couple of months now. Although it’s been chugging along well all this time, it has finally gone off to heaven.

Fortunately, I’ve been doing almost nightly backups (Monday through Thursday) so I won’t have lost much. The trouble is that that it’s going to be a better option to replace the entire system than it will be to put a new drive in and reinstall Windows. The Windows XP CDs I originally used to install Windows on that system have simply walked off. I have no idea where they are.
