- Sure I have seen this: if you wanna see that something, just
- look behind !
- Seriously: you can know when it is gonna come: the floppy
- suddenly,spins up pointless, several times. Now, you have
- to be prepared to resist the attack. cast the spell:
-
- 'save on disk'
-
- Then, when the something appears, you're unlikely to
- kill him, but he is very likely to kill you. BUT don't
- worry: there is a cure. It consists in a second spell:
-
- 'press reset and reboot'
-
- If this a bit too tricky, just try to send back your disk:
- it is generally due to a disk failure !
