And, I'm proud of you too. In the business world, when you have to completely reload a computer, it's often a complete disaster. When you work in that environment for as many years as I did, you learn to do "Maintenance" to prevent those disasters. And, of course, Backup, Backup, Backup! Remember: "The only bad backup is the one you decided NOT to do". thanks heres how i back up my computer. i use savepart. its on that thread that i linked too. its a good free piece of software too. works quite well.

the first picture? those are added with XPize in the second picture, well i think thats a program's icon

hey wildbill, great software i installed w2ksp4 in a virtual pc and tried it on that and it worked perfectly. ill post some screenshots later on today, im going out soon to do a few things, then when i get back im going on a driving lesson lol. anyway, if you need a mirror for the program, email it to me, and ill host it on my website. and if you want a html document with some info on the program, like a screenshot or two and a description of it, let me know. im willing to host it for ya email me if your interested -regards, cygnus

thats insane. its really getting out of hand. vista isnt even out, and now, they are wanting to release new ones. i can see that there will be newer versions of windows, but jeeze. vista will most likely only be about 3 years old after public release when they release a new one. people are going to get fed up with having to constantly update and upgrade. they should have a mandatory minimum of 5 years between os's that way people wont get too angry about it all. plus, if they work on one os at a time, wouldn't it make a better os? tell me im wrong (just venting )

i havent reloaded my laptop in quite a long time now, im proud of myself

i got gas, and IV. they also hooked me upto a heart monitor lol. i also got frozen. my mouth finally fees normal again lol. i got to take my iPod in with me and listen to some music too. the doctor listened to iron maiden too the teeth came out fairly easily for me. i was there for about 20 minutes then i was out. i dont have any pain anymore WOO lol, hopefully soon i can eat some good food again. i have to eat pudding and oatmeal, not that its bad, its just gonna get very repetitive anywho.. i would get the gas for sure, it made me feel good too hehehe

simply amazing youve got quite the talent there wolf!

thank god that didnt happen looks a guy that was on judge judy one time

lol it aint that bad, the worst bit of pain i have (like any other open wound) is a bit of a sting in the holes left from the teeth. other than that, i feel perfectly fine right now. my jaw is a little swollen too, but its not bugging me much. im just glad i didnt wait until later on, my dad's insurance covered it so i dont have to pay for it it woulda been $1500, but it was only 100 after insurance.

the gas didnt do much for me, but the numbing worked perfectly

lets hear it guys, i just got mine out today my lip feels weird, after being frozen it feels like it fell asleep lol. edit: dang i misspelled yes

wow thats a... thats a... huge drive glad you got it though. happy computing!

hey, glad you liked the tip

im a little confused, what happened? Official Apology to MSFN I'm sorry if I offended anyone here (the mod's and sponsers) by disabling the ad's in my browser. I have re-enabled them. I'm just happy they arent those hideous "CLICK HERE TO WIN AN IPOD FREE!!!!" kinda ads, I hate those ones. They slow my poor little computere down to a crawl. I'd be on my desktop computer, but it gets way to hot in the summer to justify going up there. so ill just stay in my nice cool basement for now and play on my laptop. If theres anyway I can help (other than donating money, I can't do that) let me know. regards, brian

hey no problem, glad i could help you have to specify the target partition, but it automatically highlights the right one anyway.

nope, sure thing. heres what i did. I had my 40gb drive dual partitioned like this: Primary : 30gb (NTFS) Secondary: 8gb (FAT32) The primary I had XP loaded on, and the secondary is a backup partition for multiple files and the actual backup file. Then I downloaded SavePart from here. After getting that, I extracted the files to a bootable floppy disk. You don't need NTFS reading capability here. I ran the program SavePart and followed the onscreen stuff. Really, you can almost just keep pushing enter until it starts to backup. Now, when I want to start the restore, I boot into dos (either a boot floppy or boot.ini) and start savepart.exe, but instead of going into the backup portion of the program, I go into restore. Then it allows you to select the backup file I made on the secondary drive and begin restoring it. Then it restores itself back to a fresh install and I'm happy. If you need anymore help, let me know, I'll be glad to help anyone. -cygnus

i'd do it, but i dont feel i deserve the status . im content here at a member anyway.

adblock is coming off, its irritating me now, very slow takes for ever just to load google i say the heck with it, ill deal with the ads, they dont bug me much anyhow. speaking of which, how i take it out? edit : lol nevermind, Tools ---> Extensions ---> Uninstall

i know how i could kind of donate to msfn, i have 13 gmail invites. if you want em, let me know. ill be more than happy to donate them. unfortuneatly, thats all i can do.

parents my parents and i dont beleive in credit cards. just a way for people to get money off of us. we already pay way too much for everything. 45 bucks a month for lite internet, 40 for cable tv with nothing on (aparently we need cable tv to have internet) and 40 a month for phone where advertising companies bug us none stop. in my opinion, and my parents, if you have a debit card, its just as good as a credit card. why do we need to have a credit card? debit is better than cash, its a card, direct to your bank, you dont pay much for transactions. id rather not take any chances and be safe if a msfn user lived close to me whom i could trust and they had an account to donate to msfn, i would give them the money. its not the money thats the issue, its the whole privacy/trust/way of getting it to you thing. msfn is a great site, dont get me wrong, i just dont have a safe way of getting the money in. im sorry im not up to date with everything

unfortuneatly, some of us cant spend money online. myself and my parents dont like to do it for fear of other people getting the information. i would gladly donate to MSFN, but i cant. maybe when i get older and out on my own perhaps i will do it.

installed and updating my ad blocker now thanks for the software

i know, i just wanted to make sure it was part of the ad. i thought it might be something else, because it only just showed up about a week ago or so. im gonna try adblock for firefox. sounds something for me to do today. edit : yay it worked, no more adds for me

has anyone seen this thing here at the bottom of the forum pages or on the msfn.org home page? i saw it once and i didnt think of it too much because i didnt see it again for at least a week, then it just randomly came back.

try not adding the RyanVM update pack. you never know.
