well, my 8 yr old has been playing a game on my computer. He went to youtube to watch a video to find out how to unlock something in his game and...now my computer is dead--all my patterns/photos gone.........so, do you back everything up? I should have but I'm not sure how to...thoughts??
I have upwards of 2000 patterns/quilt pictures and there's no way I could find them or pay for the printer ink to print all of them out. I store all my patterns/photos, etc., on an external harddrive. They only cost about $50 to $100 and you can move them from computer to computer easily. Sort of like an extremely large memory stick. These don't crash when the computer crashes.
