Thanks fink, for all the efforts. However, it did not work out. The reason I had to remove the HD from the laptop was because the HD was password protected. AS for the free JellyBean. The only free part is that it will only give you the first 4 characters of a remote HD Key. It wants $29 for anything else.

I'm just going to go ahead & reformat & take it from there. Thanks again, for your time......
