Success - thanks to all we're in business

But (there's always something else) - turns out we have a 120 gig HD.

This is a very occasional user, not into anything specific (photos, music,
etc.), mostly email contacts. I set his file system at FAT32, and removed
all partitions., and am now having second thoughts. Should I set up a
little more reasonable partition (25-40 gig?) for general use, and if so
should it be FAT 32 or NTFS?

I can do that, although I am fast approaching the "getting in over my head"
status myself. Would use 'diskpart' unless there is a better way.

Great site - great help - and it is much appreciated.

Hope everyone is heading for a great New Year.
