I’ve never seen such a volatile computer killing combination. I think that this is the fifth fucking time that I’ve tried playing a quicktime movie to have it fuck-up my RAID configuration, causing me to have to delete my RAID partitions and redo them. In the process I lose all of my data and settings and I am pretty much fucked. I just don’t get it. The first couple of times it happened I got the blue screen of death and then when I rebooted got a message saying that one of my RAID partitions was failing and to back-up my data. This time I didn’t get a blue screen of death, but I got message saying that BOTH failed. This time it didn’t even give me the fucking option to ignore the errors. Has anybody else had a problem with quicktime fucking up their RAID partitions? Any clue on how to prevent this from happening in the future?
EDIT: I’ve had such a bad experience with Vista that I actually got a Mac laptop and I’m using it to type this message and do my homework.
Is it only Quicktime that is causing such failures?
I’ve never heard of anything like this before - a media suite screwing with RAID. If it’s really happening then either Microsoft (more likely) or Apple really fucked things up this time around.
I wonder if it could have something to do with evil DRM stuff…
Yeah, it is only quicktime. Like I can open the program just fine, but the moment I open a movie, it goes downhill. I’ve had other programs crash (like FF11 I wasn’t able to open at all because it would crash immediately), but none of them cause my system get fucked up to the point of no return. If it happens again (maybe in another month or so), I’ll take a screenshot and show you guys. I just want to know if it is just me that is having these problems.
EDIT: The funny thing and it shows me that the file isn’t just corrupted is that I can open it just fine on my Mac.
