It's happened to me before. Now, I just save my work even before I write up anything. I also press Ctrl+S every few sentences, just in case I lose my work.

Im so damn pissed and angry atm. I just typed up an economic essay which was 3 pages long and was almost done when for some reason my foot accidently hit the power cable and caused the comp to turn off. I also realised that i had'nt saved my work at all so its all gone and i gotta start again. That shows how important and safe it is to save your typed up work every 10 minutes or so :angry: . How that ever happened to you?:mad:
Ow. Happened to me in the middle of a massive English speech. My dad's a computer guy though, so he saved half of it. Temp files maybe? I just remember him searching there.

one other thing you should do is save it in more than one place every so often.

ie. your computer, USB drive, school account, etc

i do this because i'm always really worried about something happenning to my computer and losing everything (which has happened)

A friend of mine typed up and formatted (lots of complicated stuff!) an entire assignment on one of these new laptops our school now has, then saved it. After signing out and switching to a normal computer she couldn't find it anywhere in her documents. She went up to computer assistance and all they said was oh sorry, can't help, everyone knows those laptops aren't connected to the network properly yet, you shouldn't have been doing important work on them yet, we're not going to bother helping you find it (even though they've been going on about how advanced and cool our IT department now is and we should all check out the new laptops - no warnings).

So she hates our IT department with a passion now.

Haha, yes, we just got them either this year or the end of last year. It's really funny because they are kept in the library and whenever a teacher wants to do computer research with the class, they just assume that they don't need to organise to have a computer room and take the class to the library, and then everyone fights over the laptops because every teacher had the same idea. It's really amusing to watch.

We have laptops too. =S People use them in classes sometimes, instead of having pen and paper.
