StatusGearEntertainment Shot Down!

For those who don't know already, I'm practically down 1 laptop and almost down another. Granted, I legit own 4 laptops. 2 are at home in Florida (one out of commission) and the other working just fine. My goal for this christmas break was too send all 4 laptops over with me and drop 2 off in case any brake in the future. Coming back from Florida to Japan, well nothing good came out of that. Service was pretty bad and all plus my bags never made it with me, they got stuck in Texas for some reason and have to be delivered not too me directly, but to a delivery coming about 7 minutes drive away.

Currently 2 of 4 laptops are with me. My perfectly working ASUS that had all of my RMMV related content is now going through a constant cycle of what some of you know as the Blue Screen of Death. To those new with Windows 8, it's referred to as the Watchdog Violation Error. So with that said, my demos and games overall for RMMV are gone. So with this depressing news, i'm going to relax a little on RMMV. I'll get another game up and running since I guess I can restart all this smartly with a much cleaner code and scripts and events and still get the same results.

My currently laptop i'm using to communicate is this poor expensive slim Samsung laptop. Poor thing also had nothing wrong with it and it's specs are pretty good for a super small and super light laptop. Now this thing legit is bent. It no longer closes fully and it wobbles. The worst part is that i have to constantly adjust the screen so that the screen doesnt give out. So basically graphics issues as well. This leaves me with 1 actual working laptop with no problem to it and 2 functioning laptops total. SMH

Edit: Also a quick apology to Kaimen as his WIP Logo version 2 is now gone as well. As well as Orangeball's logos / characters. As well as those 40 busts. MV-Tan has smited me.

That's a shame, but worry not for all is not entirely lost. If this laptop is currently Accessible to you you can recover data from it! [Results may vary, but on many occasions this can help you get your data back from the failing computers hard drive.] There are two things you can do here;
1. Get a simple external 3.5inch hard drive case. Put the Asus' HDD in that, plug in to other computer search through it find and pull your data over. I legit keep several External Hard drive cases around for just this kind of reason.
2. If you have a blank CD/DVD you can work with, and a USB drive. You can do a similar thing using your choice from a plethora of Linux Distributions, burn a Live CD of the distro, I suggest Ubuntu for those with no Linux Experience. Boot the laptop from the Live CD, and from there mount the laptops HDD in Linux, And transfer and files needed from the HDD to the thumb drive.

As I said, results may vary, depending on if the HDD is actually Damaged or not, or if your OS was just corrupt. Actual damage to the HDD could make it only capable of partial recovery, or in some horrible situations, no recovery at all.

That's shit man D: can you get anything back from them as compensation? I know the feeling when your computers system is instable and shit crashes all the time. Your work is all gone that's so sad D:

Ugh, man, what a nightmare. Makes me NEVER want to travel. X_X

Somehow I have a feeling your new project is going to be even greater since your resolve seems extra forged now.

And I was so excited about that logo, too... Man... I would tell you to leave it but since it's something in return for a song I made you, I really can't do that. >_<
Still, I'm sorry for you dude. I had that happen to me once, too and since then I have been avid about making backups every few days or so. Keep up your spirits though! ^_^

I'll think of something. Don't worry. I can look at most art (especially mine) and tell right off the bat what was done to create it.
