Well that was a trip up memory lane..I cant remember the last time I used a floppy disk.Anyway all that happened was it discovered that my maxtor was present as well as my external drive.It failed to even see the sata drive.I followed the instructions and finally had to reboot because nothing happened for 5 minutes..yes I know I'm impatient but frankly I think it's a software problem myself.I did install Bryce 6 yesterday and although that appears to be working perfectly it may well have had issues with software my son was using..
Anyway it's rebooted three times now with no problems.It's just this system32 being the issue three times in a short space of time that's got me wondering.
Where are my manners?Forgot to say thank you to everyone...I'm getting like the children I teach.
