I' running a new SATA HDD that I just installed , transferred the OS from
another SATA HDD with the program I was referring to in a previous thread .
I booted this box from the original before I booted from this one , so
apparently this will work as a means to create a backup drive .
This was done because I want to make some changes to the original , and
didn't want to risk losing everything on my desktop comp .

Made the changes discussed in that previous thread - prefetch mods and
deletions . I'm back on the original HDD now , with the new one disconnected
but still in the comp just in case ... I tried to reconfigure the partition
sizes on the new drive , but it wouldn't let me . My next mod will to be to
change partition sizes via admin tools . I really really should have made
the boot partition larger than 40 Gb when I reloaded the OS into this
machine a while back .
And away we go !
