Thank you. Well, it's like this: I have a complete backup (Nero) of my 12 Gigs on CDROM. (I cannot boot from those drives, even though the Dell setup appears to allow me to prioritize them. ) Such nightmares as disrupting the ridiculously fragile NAV 2003, which Symantec no longer supports, come to mind - I have been down that road 4 times now. I do not have SE, by the way, it is the original 98. Should I? What is special about SE? Speaking of disrupting Norton with Defrag: given that it takes 4 hours to defrag 12 Gigs, I would hope that it would not take 21 hours to do an 80! How is this handled on bigger drives? Thanks for the followup.
