Landlord.
Why I fecking Hate Microsoft.
I was upgrading a PC from xp to win7, therefore I backed all the files up using files and settings transfer wizard.
Then installed win 7 great all working.
then tried to bring back files and settings in, "no no no" said microsoft we don't understand that type of backup file, it needs to be the new type.
OIC thought I I will put XP back on then transfer in the new format.
"NO NO NO" said XP you have a SATA hard drive and we can't see it.
OH Feck thought I, much digging and found an old IDE HD, formatted it put XP on it tried to transfer "no no no" said files and setting transfer we don't recognise the file,
Lets look on tinternet says I, bloody comp needed to have service pack 3c installed as the old one was fulluy up to date.
so updated got working, HD gave up the ghost and lost its xp install. "FECK FECK FECK FECK FECK FECK FECK" said I.
So went to mates borrowed spare IDE HD, went throuygh above again.
Transfered files back to XP using files and settings transfer wiz "This bit only took 7 hours".
Now I am transfering back using windows easy transfer, 1 hr
so far, then have to install win 7 again and transfer saved xp files into Win 7.
My weekend has gone no fun for me!
My Wife hates me My kids hate me cos I am like a bear with a sore head and have had no time for them all weekend
& I hate fecking Microsoft.
P.S. its also the last time I do the Mother in law a favour.
