KD Computer Security

Computer crashes are so terrible. My sophomore year of college, I had a three year old computer that had thousands of my pictures, all my school work, and lots of music on it. I don't even remember what led up to the crash, but one day I turned my computer on and the screen was just blue. I called the IT people on campus and I remember the lady I was speaking to said "oh you have the microsoft blue screen of death".... I was very concerned at that point. I spent five hours that day in the 4help computer place, and eventually they recovered most of my data by putting it on an external hard drive, restoring my computer, and then putting everything back. It could have been much worse, and I have definitely invested in an external hard drive for backup purposes since then.
