Happy BD Valandar. Many happy returns. EricofSD: Just wondering... How big a HDD? Did you lose an 8 gigs partition (hidden)? When defragging, do you see a lage area, reported as a hardware memory dump? .......That's what I had. It was stable for a long time but had a total melt down a few weeks ago. Something to do with that 8 gig hidden partition. Still haven't quite figured it out yet. Any ideas? Thanks, Q
