I know this sounds rather stupid, but I really don't understand how these things work, yet!! I have 2 hard drives installed. I transferred all of the data from my original 10gb drive to my new IBM desk star 60gb 7200rpm drive. I now have the same data on both drives. I want to use the smaller drive to run Virtual PC and the software it requires to run along with photoshop//graphics programs and my girls games. I felt it best to keep all of the photo editing/graphics and Virtual PC on one drive and my work related and regular stuff on the main drive. What do I need to install on the smaller drive for everything to work properly? Do I need 9.2.1 on both drives? Do I need Photoshop on both drives? If I have support software on the main harddrive, will the 2nd harddrive automatically read it and load it, or does it need to be installed on the 2nd drive in order to work?
One problem I've encountered is my DVD player worked fine on the original HD but now, everytime I insert a disc that is Mac/Win compatible, I get the msg that the disk can't be read on this drive and would I like to initialize the disk? It doesn't do that on disks that are Mac only disks, just those that are Mac/Win. Anyone know why it could be doing that? Sorry for being so ignorant about these things, but I'm reading as fast as I can. Thanks for your help! Ron in Austin -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
