Hope you don't mind my adding my query to the one you are looking at already
thanks a mystified parent

Thanks. Those are the 2 Aussie's we had for 13 years. Great dogs. We now have a pup just like the Black/White/Tan one 3 years old. We have had 5 Aussie's over the years and this one is the most intelligent of them all. Smarter than me, I think. Thanks for the comment... Ray

Nice dog!

Hi raybro
I am still plodding away trying to understand the whys and wherefores of my hp windows 7 package but I have one specific problem you may be able to advise/explain to me the computer came with 320gb hard drive with only 284 left free there is a factory image partition of 13.5gb shown separately the rest I have no idea where it has gone. Anyway I have loaded most of the compatible and wanted programs from the old disk which in total should have used no more than 26gb there is 9gb of system restore so a theoretical 35 say36gb of used disk space but according to my system properties I only have 229gb free which means I have lost another 19gb which at my age seems an awful lot any thoughts about this problem would be much appreciated

P.S. I set the "Hide file" check back as I found it. Was that right? Also I have two accounts on this computer. One is the "Administrator" and one is "User". I only use "User" and made the changes to "User". Should I change "Administrator" or should I have done that, (in "Administrator"), right from the start? And one last thing....Can I take all the settings and programs from "user" and import them to "Administrator" or can I make "User" the "Administrator"? If I can, would this free up space on my machine by removing, (deleting), one of them? Thanks again. (Looonnnggg P.S., eh?).

I still use the Crucial site to order RAM, but I no longer trust the scanner. I now use the alternative of entering the computer mfr, model, etc.. OR I get the mobo info and enter that. Works much better.

Raybro,
In regards to the following post, will you continue to use the Crucial Scanner?
