>>silly NT network/disk error A shot in the dark. If you had a configuration in the past in which your M partition was something else other than a hard drive partition, you might still have a specification for it somewhere that causes the type of error you describe. The "something else" I have had problems with were CD-ROMs and old network drives. Both of these drive letter assignments can leave their footprints behind to conflict intermittently with a hard disk partition that later gets the same drive letter. Suggestions: Search the registry for "M:". This may lead you to something. Check your network drive assignments to see if M: is assigned as a network drive. This may or may not be visible, but M: will almost certainly appear in the registry if there is an old assignment. A CD-ROM problem that once drove me nuts apparently had to do with the CD player from Power Toys remembering an old CD drive letter which had been reassigned. Good luck. Spots
