Hello, When Stan built my tower 11/99, he installed Mandrake on a Samsung 6 gig hard drive. May 2000, I put Mandrake 7.0 on over the previous version. Somehow Mandrake became compromised and needs to be reinstalled. I'd like to buy another hard drive, install Mandrake, then copy my data files (mostly email and other text files), then wipe the original hard drive and start over. I think this is the quickest way to save my data files. I've got the Cyrix 333 chip, 262 Mhz, and 64 meg of RAM. Various options. New chip? I don't know, if this will work for now, do I need a better one? Maybe I can get some more RAM while I'm at it, if the price is still good, last I heard about $30 for 32 meg? Can anyone tell me where I might get the best deal on a hard drive in Eugene, tonight? I'd like to keep it under $200.00. Thanks. BTW, is there a EUGLUG meeting tonight at the usual place?
