Hi guys. Got some bad news. Today, after installing updates for Windows, my computer refused to let me log in. Instead, it decided that rebooting after a Blue Screen was better than working...
I found the problem (eventually), it was the remnants of an old camera driver that was not compatible with Windows Vista after I used Windows Update. So every time Windows starts, loads drivers, it Blue Screens. After spending hours sifting through the System 32 directory and manually deleting driver files to no avail, I decided to reinstall, but not before tricking Vista to let me in via Safe Mode to copy the project files over to a new hard drive.
Anyways, the good news is, I now have all the project files stored in a protected backup and once I relink all the hierarchical references in the project files, we should be back up and running. Delays are however, expected. On another note, I did manage to locate my old camera (the perpetrator) and smash it to bits—which made me feel good.
