Thanks, once again for your feedback!!
It's off to the store today to buy a copy of XP Pro. I will not buy the
upgrade as I am not certain that it would do the job; will get the full blown
copy.
If I run into any issues with the new install can I contact you personally,
thru this discussion group or should I open a new topic?
Regards,
