Reading your message reminded me of something that happened to me for the first time just last Sunday, also involving XP and files on an external HD. I don't know if it's related to your problem, and I still don't understand what happened, but perhaps it'll help you.
In short, for some unexplained reason XP changed the ownership settings of a group of JPGS in an external HD. Not all JPGS, just those in one specific folder. I guess it happened when, upon trying to view those images thru slideshow-software, the software seemed to choke. I moved the images to another location in that same HD and that resulted in the images being not only unviewable but un- eraseable. All other JPGS on that HD continued to work fine, though. Later, back on another computer (Win2K), I searched the internet and came upon an article about "How to take ownership of a file or folder in XP". It seems XP is automatically set to something called "Simple File" sharing. Anyway, once I changed the files' ownership, they became viewable. So, perhaps XP file ownership/sharing is the problem too in your case? -- Nicolas Cueto _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
