Yes I realized that AFTER I wrote the first email. I am sitting here trying to work out each step in my head. My first problem is just plain thinking. :) I know my c: has to be my main boot drive (it's early, brain in sleep mode yet)...Now I just found out..that if I have two different hd's installed (manufacturers) I may have a problem getting them to "like" each other. I have a WD old hd..and a Samsung new one. This seems to be getting very complicated and that's why I'm trying to reason out the whole thing in my head before I do anything physically. Thanks..
