FyreSpiryt - Axe - TygerCub.... Thank you much for the input. I figured to many folders was the problem, but was not sure what the max was, now I know I need to get below 255 max folders. I'm not looking forward to cleaning all them files, but yes it has to be done (maybe I can talk my wife into doing it ?) I will check into PBoost, sounds like a handy utility. Please have a safe and happy holiday and thanks again for the help
