went in and expert installed to re-partition the drive and fix my mistakes. thanks Mike for the offlist info to get me going.
i think it's going to be a slow process from here just in getting used to the new OS. all i've ever known is windows, and the first few years i ever touched a computer it was a Mac, so i never even played with DOS. Where can i go to find possibly archived Q&A stuff and maybe even listings of programs that i can and can't use. i primarily use the computer for music, surfing, e-mail, AIM, and now starting to get into burning video to VCD for DVD player playback. About the mail programs availible, i'm using pegasus mail on winblows, err, sorry, windows, and it has features such as checking my pop3 server how ever often i want it to (i have it set at every 30 seconds) for new mail. do the linux based mail programs offer that? anyway, wherever i can be aimed at to start finding this stuff and experimenting on my own...if anyone can point me that way...would be a great help. Thanks!
