win386.swp is the swap file filename. you'll find it in your windows folder. if you have partition magic, look for a component called 'magic mover'. that should let you move it.

that's all i can think of right at this time, don. i'm about to log off.

hope that helps

:)

"Ended up copying the contents to a partition of the new drive, and at least some of them run"

my understanding of partition magic (and i am just getting started using this program!) is that when you create a partition that you plan to load an operating system onto, it must be designated as a primary partition, not logical or extended. perhaps this has something to do with what you have described. perhaps not. <g>
