Windows is my New Arch-Enemy

I (used to) keep 2 windows installations. 1 was a Boot Camp partition on my iMac that I installed my games on, as well as ran Quicken from. The other was a stand alone box that was an all purpose server. Apache/MySQL/php, as well my Media server.

2 days ago, both installations broke. The Boot Camp partition was killed by Paralles crashing, and the server was killed by an auto update of video drivers. Nvidia drivers, in my experience are VERY fickle, and upon a change in them, my system failed to boot.

The good news, I didn’t loose the site, only the content. The bad news, some of that content was my new photography page. Owell. The iMac is the server now, as it really should have been all along.
