Hello Rich , thank you for your prompt answer . I did not back up any data because it is a brand new laptop ......with only one partition .....C = 60 GB. I wanted to have a D for my data , but something went wrong. Do you know any link to tutorials Partition Magic that tackle this specific situation ? I promise I will cross all I have waiting for a happy end .... But the annoying XMNT 2002 ......how can I get ryd of it ? Thank you again Julio
