Aaaaarrrrgggghhhh !, have to re-install Ryzom !

[browserice]

3 days ago, I had switched my old IDE flat grey cables for rounded ones because 1- I switched from a mid-tower to a full tower, 2- to help air flow. But the next day, when I started playing games, I had a nice surprise. All my games are residing on a 2nd harddisk.

I got a message saying it couldn't not find the game. I went to check and the folder was empty. Did a quick scandisk and it told me the drive as about to crash because it detected corrupted folders and files. So I rebooted to do a chkdsk (Win-xp) and once in windows, the hd was gone.

Did a lot of testing, checking, posting, ... to finally switch back the old IDE cable. Now it sees my 2nd hd but it is still corrupted. So I will probably have to re-install all my games now.

My Ryzom install file was on that HD !!!!

Aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!! (old Zork thing)

Could it be that you just accidentally switched the HDs?
Happened to me once and XP got quite confused about which HD to detect on which port. After I switched back all was ok.

I hope it works out for you, but be glad the client isn´t that big.
A download will be done faster than many other games.
Best use the torrent, its great!
