Hey all. Thought it might be fun to share the follies of our computer fixing career, because everyone makes mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes are hilarious.
I'll start. Just this evening, I was formatting a WBFS external to use on my friend's Wii. I have a partitioned Windows/Linux setup. I was trying to find where the external hard drive was on WBFS Manager's menu, and in a moment of outright stupidity, I used a brilliant deduction and selected my own NTFS side to format.
So now I gotta get out the Windows 7 disc and reinstall my Windows side.
Oh, and my Ubuntu side is in Korean, for some reason. =I
How about you all? What's your worst IT screwup ever?
