How so, no matter how you do the directory structure, if you need to back up everything, it's going to take the same amount of space.... I personally have several partitions, down to 4 from like 6 or 8 on my laptop Windows Apps Data Misc (and storage for burning cd/dvd's) My desktop still has a gazillion partitions Windows apps data internet games swap file Misc When I get around to upgrading it to XP from 2k, I'll likely go down to 4 partitions. With most clients I just leave the single partition but create a folder called c:\data into which all data is configured to go, including remapping the mydocs folder to go into c:\data. The makes data backups easily, just backup one folder. -- Harondel J. Sibble Sibble Computer Consulting Creating solutions for the small business and home computer user.
