First there was the “msgina.dll” error, but I didn’t see that. No, what really made my jaw drop was this one:

“The file or directory C: is invalid.”

That’s never a good sign, is it?

Yeah, I spent almost all day rebuilding one of the transmitter remote-control computers. Turns out the motherboard was fritzed, though it gave errors that led me to believe it was a partition or drive failure at first. Ah well. It could’ve been worse, I suppose.

Still, I’m glad it’s the weekend. Very, very glad.
