[QUOTE="Bleazle, post: 835132, member: 53582"] Hi All I've got a couple of issues going on (OK, those who know me might say I've got more than that, but that's a different story!:D) 1. One of my 1TB HDD has just crapped itself (Seagate Barracuda 7200.11) and it's full of movies :( The disc is under warranty but is there any way I can recover the movies before I send it off? I'm guessing "no" because I can't even get it to show up on my PC, the disc is just "clicking" and not reading :( gutted :mad: If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them! 2. Port forwarding - I've spent fricken hours on this!! :growl: I've set up a static IP for my HTPC (no worries there), forwarded the ports I want to forward in Windows Firewall, on my Router (D-Link 655) and modem (D-Link 526B) and have even tried bridging the router and modem (which killed everything so I sent back to how it was) - nothing has worked :growl: I'm at the point where I need someone to take a look at this because I can't see why it won't work and I've Googled the cr@p out of this topic (been through everything on Portforward.com etc). If anyone out there is able to help please PM me - maybe this could be done via remote access? Cheers Bleazle [/QUOTE]
