Default boot from start-up disk failed

lol Not quite half full g no actually to start off I've just done an
image of my Vista machine including the hidden partition that the makers put
on the drive. I haven't got around to setting up a schedule yet, it's Friday
so not as much time to mess about today.

The difference in size makes me laugh this one is sitting on the shelf above
the tower on my desk so it can be left plugged in, it has it's own power
adapter so that's good, and my other drive looks more like a midget compared
to the new one it's not even as big as a notebook. Mind you that one is only
a 2.5" portable, well laptop size, whereas the Seagate is a 3.5" drive in
it's own enclosure.

I still have an image on the small drive but as it's only 80GB I knew I
needed to get a bigger one especially when I want to image both OS's

Does that mean you haven't tried using it yet Joan? g I'm surprised you
haven't half filled it already. :-)

I'm busy trying to clear some of my external storage by archiving to DVD
but it seems to be taking me absolutely ages. Might just be because of
the amount that needs to be done vbg. It looks like I'm going to have
to order some more blank DVDs this weekend, I'm getting through them so
quickly. I need to work out how many to order this time round - hopefully
SVP still have free delivery for orders £xx. Phew, it looks as if they
still do, which means I get to buy another tub.
