I'm still not sure if it's name brand or if it was custom
built. Reason that's important is because that biggest issue I
mentioned on my post about SP3 had a lot to do with name brand
PC's with pre-loaded OS's. If it's NOT a name brand, and if it
uses custom hardware then it's "less" likely to have the issue,
but that by no means others won't, remember that my PC is
totally custom built and it had the issue.
If you're totally happy with the way it's working, then of
course I wouldn't mess with it either. Sounds like you REALLY
need to backup all your data bad. If you can't live without it
you're going to be in a really bad fix (not IF but WHEN) the
HD(s) or something else goes bad.

I purchased the computer from PCclub an outfit that is or was
only in the
western USA. I'm not sure they are still in Arizona anymore. I
bought this
computer 6 1/2 years ago. I don't think the CD is OEM. I've
never had to
reload Windows.
I'm a collector. I have so much junk on this computer I can't
find it but I
can't live without it. <G> I can't buy a new computer because
I could never
get all this junk transferred to the new computer. I have a
hard drive with
four partitions plus a slave drive that came from the computer
before this
one.
I could do a system restore but if it involved more than that
I'd be unhappy
to say the least.
I'll wait. Everything runs fine. I don't need to mess things
up. <G>
