Spots So you can see the partition when you boot your normal NT, and it is labeled "J". Correct That means you either have a hell of a lot of partitions or have relettered them. Which? Well.. I let NT do the lettering, but I do have 8 partitions spread over 4 drives. On the KOT drive I also store Direct Image files and because of the 2 gig FAT limitation I had to make a separate 2 gig partition for image storage of 3 primary partitions. So theres 3 partitions rifgt there. But I digress.... I took your word that it was the "next partition over" but how do you know that? From the Partition Magic graphic display of IDE 1 J is not a very likely letter for the "next partition over" from C. I had not done any partitioning on ide 1 since we first set up this machine. All the partitions created since then have been on the other drives using letters D: E F G H I. So when I made the copy of C: to live in the free space after C: PM named it J which is the next available letter. Now, from left to right, if C is 1, what number is J? 2...... in the boot.ini I indicated Partition (2). A few months back I planned to retire in July, Congradulations...although I'm surprised to here that. You have the spirit of a 30 yr old. Then again maybe you are a very successful 30 yr old <gg> Some day I'd like to here about the products your supporting.... Next year, this time, lookout WALL ST.. right Spots?
