Hi Dave
I was using a 2.2 Gb drive on my Q40 and it was plenty, so sort of
assumed this would be ok for QPC, I have a 40 Gb drive in the PC and it
has  almost 30 GB free.
I formatted the .win file to 2000 and it has worked, well this is
probably more than I really need, thinking about it maybe I need to
think out just what I need from QPC, the Q40 had on it a lot of jpeg's
from my digi camera ( also on my PC for safety and to be sure to be sure
burnt onto a CD, so I think my mind set needs a purge ( render unto
Ceaser and all that ).
Yes I think I'll sleep on it, tomorrow I'm into wallpaper unfortunately
not the screen type but the up a ladder type ( cut and paste though )
(:-)

Still wonder if there is any reason for the format failure, maybe a
limit to block size or something ?

thanks for your reply
All the best - Bill
