No, I have Windows Professional! When I try to save it also states that save file has failed. Then if I do get ot to save, when I try to open the CD, it does not recognize Design Shop software and asks me to go the the web and find something! Can anyone tell me what I should do from the beginning then on how to save files and copy to disc from this step forward or should I be using a removable hard drive??? I guess if someone could give me their step by step for saving to CD process I can see what I might be doing wrong. Thanks for all of your help folks! You are all life savers!

The reason I asked if you dragged and dropped to the folder to backup to CD was that if you drag and the file highlights with a minus sign rather than with a plus sign as you are dragging then it is being moved (not copied) to the CD folder. My first recommendation is to seperate JPG into a folder called IMAGES and keep your OFM/DST designs in a folder called DESIGNS. Second rercommendationis to do a copy and paste you DESIGN folder to the backup CD Drive.Lee Digital Stitchz 905 Texas Street Fairfield, CA 94533 (707) 426-9963 Phone (707) 426-9983 FAX Embroidery, Applique, Vinyl Lettering &numbers, Screenprinting &Laser Engraving =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list =========================================================== --------------------------------- Get your own web address for just $1.99/1st yr.
