Hey Noel!

Hi, Nevans!
Thank you for confirming what Maxblast does. I plan to get started this
weekend.

Good - just make sure that you read all teh warnings!


I appreciate the information about the XP install. I'm sure I would
have done it with the old drive present if you hadn't forewarned me.

yeah - it's only a small chance, but depending on your BIOS, you could
have ended up with teh existing drive as teh default - and an XP tyhat
wouldn't boot without that drive present.

Thanks again,
Nancy

.PS. I see from your website that you're in North Wales. My paternal
grandmother emigrated from Wales to Canada in the late 1800's. She
later met and married my grandfather in Canada after he emigrated there
from Scotland. They eventually ended up in the U.S. in the early
1900's. The world seems so small nowadays.

My father was born in Hamilton (Glasgow) - I was born in Slough (English
home of the Mars-bar), and I now live in Wales..... which makes me some
sort of mongrel!

P.P.S. I assume that "Windows Nail" on your site means "Window Mail"?

Oh... did a typo slip through??? bu%%er! I'll get to it soon.... promise!

Thanks for the heads-up!

Noel
