Thanks for all of the great feedback.  This 20 gig 
was installed by my son, and the computer does recognize that it is there, but 
he is unavailable to me right now. I also just bought an unusual SIIG PCI 133 
card that has these external receptacles>2 )USB2.0 receptacles and 
   1) firewire and     1)10/100 Ethernet Port, and 
inside it has   1) USB2.0 and  1) firewire.  I 
installed it myself, but the installation did not go exactly as the instructions 
said that it should. I then  followed the instructions to  see if 
the installation was successful. There were a few differences in the items that 
got installed in my computer when compared to what it said should be there. I 
plugged the Ethernet port in and it works fine.  I immediately emailed 
support about the differences on Saturday, the day that I installed the 
card.  Because of problems in the past, I have decided to wait 
for SIIG's advice.  I also bought a Western Digital USB2.0 external HD that 
I will install as soon as I hear from SIIG about the differences in 
what was installed. I was wanting to use this external USB drive for 
backup, and use the 20 gig inside the computer for only data, and then devote 
the 9.3 gig internal drive to programs and the XP Pro operating 
system.
 
My past Outlook Express bad inbox problem was solved 
by changing the name of it to inboxbad.dbx .
 
The spell-check in my notebook is dull, and does not 
work, will it also create a new spell-check if I find the file, and rename to 
spellcheckbad.dbx?  I haven't yet looked for it, so I just made-up a name 
for it. 
 
Thanks again for helping me into the 20th century.  
At least I can now see the door of the 21st century.  Later Ron

  installed a new drive (160gb $99 US from staples!!) Friday and found the

  Hi
  There are a few things 
  you would need to do. Jope I have it correct have just gone through this 
  m=yself when the "experts" stuffed up installing a new drive on my older 
  computer, motherboard was limited to 40GB and I could only buy 80GB so had to 
  partition it as 2x40GB and install it correctly. One "expert" had told me it 
  could not be done due to the age of my motherboard (~3yrs old), but having 
  broken my teeth in the old days when fast comps were 12MHz and HDs measured in 
  MBs found I had to do it myself anyway.

  1. The hard drives, new 
  and old would need to have the dipswitches set so that the old one is Primary 
  and new is secondary. These settings are available in the information manual 
  you should get with the hard drives, or you can get them from the websites of 
  the manufacturers.
  <FONT 
face=Arial> 
  2. You would need the 
  comm cable for double hard drives, end conection is the C drive normally 
  (this is wide flat cable with the red edge stripe positioned furthest from the 
  mother board.
  <FONT 
face=Arial> 
  3. Run Fdisk to set the 
  new drive to be set as usable dos drive (not sure if XP does this 
  for you?) and format the drive
  <FONT

  4. Windows will then 
  recognise the drive and you are in business.

    Sorry about this off topic, but this post 
    below  to TC support was rejected, and don't know who else to ask? TIA 
    for all advice. Ron D

    This was rejected by the TC2k support 
    server.
    My computer's 9.3 gig HD is almost full. It has 
    1.65 gigs of free space.  I have installed a second HD to handle 
    additional data, but I have not found anyone yet to configure it so 
    that my computer will be able to use this extra HD capacity.
     
    I ordered a TC2k CD 
     that I was told I would be able to 
    download data starting  on Jan 12,2003.  
     
    If I am able to hire someone to 
    make this second 20gig HD available by January 1,2004,
    do you think that It will probably be OK to add 
    TC2k now so that I can start using the TC2k data?  I have XP  pro, 
    and do not have any crashing or freezing problems at all.
