[G4] Hard drive help

[Hector I. Macedo]

Good luck, I had a problem similar to that and I think it was Tech  
Tools the guilty part. I didn't have any important stuff on the drive

Then round his hook the chosen fur he winds,
And on the back a speckled feather binds;
So just the colours shine through ev'ry part,
That nature seems to live again in art.
