Remove the drive, install new drive into system. Now Install, I do not use XP nor to I view it on any system. I do however have a Server here for SQL Server & software development. Now I also have a 2nd drive with linux on it. I plug in the drive I need. Life is better that way, I do not beleive you can slave on a laptop. cheers -- Rick Sivernell Dallas, Texas 75287 972 306-2296 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Caldera Open Linux eWorkStation 3.1.1 Registered Linux User .~. / v \ /( _ )\ ^ ^ In Linux we trust! _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
