start in Safe Mode - turn the puter on - once the memory counts start pushing F8 before WIndows loads - you'll be taken to a screen where you can choose to start in Safe Mode - you;re limited to what you can do but once Win starts go to Start\run\msconfig - go to Startup and select Disable ALL - then restart and then one at a time turn things back on - there's little you *have* to have and Win will load those.
BTW, saw an ad for IOmega HDs - they have a 750GB ext USB HD for $160. There may be others less expensive -- Good luck - Larry T (66 MGB, 74 911, 91 300D) www.youroil.net for Oil Analysis and Weber Parts Test Results http://members.rennlist.com/oil PORSCHE POSTERS! youroil.net 800-583-8601 Weber Carb Info http://members.rennlist.com/webercarbs ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kaleb C.
