The hard drive disk isn't spinning at all. I am going try tonight anyways. I also lost the scripts required for faucet payouts but I can reprogram a basic version in a little over an hour. As soon as I am done that I have to go to the local Bitcoin shop, purchase some NyanCoin with it and hand it out to the people at the faucet that are kindly waiting. I hope to accomplish that in the next six hours. It really is aweful.
So, is the hard drive picking up and it seeing the size in the bios of the machine it is in? If those two are correct there is a chance that is still functional. What have you tried in terms of recovery of files up to this point? I deal with failing drives a fair bit so i know a little bit lol. If you want some insight send me a PM I start up the computer and I get a no hard drive detected error, the disk isn't spinning or anything. I have a usb to Sata adapter which I hope might make it work.. I have terrible luck with computers this week, my expensive half a year old i7 died last week because the circuit board got fried, Now my hard drive fails in this one. I am figuring it is better to buy a computer off kijiji.ca for the same price as it is to buy windows 7... Off for the hunt. My work depends I have a laptop. If it is not powering up it might be the circuit board on the hard drive itself, if you had an same model you might be able to swap them... but thats not really all that useful for you i am assuming lol. I have actually put HDs in the freezer to give them a few minutes of life to grab an important file or two lol.. i think it has to do with shrinkign the metal temporarily :p. I think this doesnt help you much though either cause it doestn seem like a contact issue. |

The funny thing is I actually do have a second laptop of the same kind. I bought them at an auction . Two 2Ghz 4Gb ram laptops windows 7 for $50 each. They lasted me 3 years. During the summer my friend dropped one and broke the screen plus the hard drive.
I also got a great idea. The awesome laptop I mentioned that also broke about two weeks ago, I figured I could us that hard drive, except I wouldn't boot up the Terabyte drive. Of course Windows 8 wouldn't work on a Celeron 2 processor.
I'm digging around to see what I can find.

You worked in my apartment?(Jokes) I always keep my old.computers as I may need the parts. LCD screens seem very usable too me as of recent..
Best I can do is clone different drives and test those out. If any work then I just have to find and install the ancient rare drivers.

I just got great news! Apparently I found a backed up version of my NyanCoin wallet from when I first started with three addresses on it. Out of those one was empty and the other two ended up being my NyanCoin.Me faucet addresses! Now I just have to reprogram the faucet payment app and I can send money out asap.
The bad news is I lost two hundred thousand Nyan from my newer NyanCoin addresses..

hold onto the hard drive, if Nyan ever becomes really valuable you can send the drive off to drivesavers.com - it's expensive but it's very likely they can recover the data. |

Alright, thanks for the support.
I am surprised that no one is really talking about the NyanCoin event coming.

I am not sure, that is my confusion. The post did say today or tomorrow, though on Reddit the Dev said this afternoon.
Where I am it's midnight so it will end up being tomorrow probably.

We were told by the other party that this would happen on Friday. However, it appears Friday has passed and nothing has happened on their end. We will immediately be contacting them to figure out what is going on. Once we get an updated date, we will let you all know. Hopefully, they just had a small delay and decided to change to today but we will certainly find out for sure. (This is the reason why we are not publicly announcing what it is, when it has to do with third parties, you can never be sure they will keep their promises.) |

The difficulty in mining is rising again. I guess thats a good sign.
On the other hand, a possible solution for risng the price is to create a shop where you can buy nyancat products with only nyancoins.
