@felco @pedrog Thanks a lot guys! After what you are saying here, i see a chance  .. I ll take the drive to a pro to find that file. I'll let you know what i found!

Hi Everyone!

It's to much to say even that I am new in this... i barely have a basic ideea about what Bitcoin or Bitcoin trading means. But I have a problem.

In 2009, when bitcoin started, i was a student and browsing online I ran into an website that promised that if i install and run a software on my computer i will be rewarded with some virtual coins.  I found out these days that I actually caught the begining of the bitcoin....

As i was a student, living in a room with another 2 .. and as computer in that time was always on.. i thought i have nothing to lose and i downloaded and run the software for digging. It was something new and i took it as a game.

The computer ran non stop, more than one year, untill it crashed - was nothing unexepected as 23 hours out of 24 someone was playing Heroes or Starcraft on it ))... So probably few bitcoins were mined in that period.. i never checked and i forgot about this untill the other days when i red more about bitcoin and i understood that this is what i was "digging" 8 years ago.

My problem is that i don't know how this is working.. I always keep all my old drives, so i still have the old drive from that computer (most probably is fucked up...). I don't remember any password or something .. i don't even remember if it was needed to have one..

Can anyone help me and tell me if i have any chances to recover what i mined then and how should i do this?

Thanks in advance for all you help!
