Sorry about that Train. OK, now that I need to backup my system before I try this I see that I do not have a 1386 folder on my first hard drive ( C: & D: ) I only find i386 and I don't think that is the right one from what I read on a couple of web sites. However I do have 1386 file on my second hard drive ( G: ) where I store everything else.Both hard drives are out of Dell computers that I bought from Dell a few years back. Can I copy and paste it over to the first hard drive in a new folder so its on the first hard drive or will it work from there? Or what should I do there? By the way I do have a small home network (2 desktops and 1 laptop, soon to be 2 laptops next week when it gets here). Should I unhook the computer from the network before I make the backup disk or do I need to backup everything all at once? Thanks again, Advenger
