Well Lix............. you certainly got an earful!!!! Next time ask us how to get a better orgasm and you'll get a........

Anyway, PF said everything I was putting together.... and his Lixyspeak was so eloquent! I also discovered AVG.... it found things that Norton did not.

As far as totally destroying your old hard drive....... ( many months after you've taken out what you want) I was told the only true destruction is to remove the hard drive and drill 4 spaced out holes thru it. Then it's junk! PF mention bringing old stuff into your new computer..... I wouldn't want to chance bringing in crap (so be selective)and will your imported software be upgraded to run on vista?

I've got 8 Dell's and a Dell laptop..... I did start out with 4 Gateways many years ago.... my biggest complaint is that I don't speak Indian/English..... I always insist on tech support from Texas.... I can at least partially understand them!!!

A puter friend I've known since childhood told me years ago to turn my new puters on and leave them on for a week. If anything was to fail, it would do it by then. After purchasing 12 puters for my biz and another 6 for family, I've always done this and have only had 1 video card quit...... and it did it 1 month after my 3 yr extended Dell warranty expired. They did charge me for it and gave me misinformation on how to install the card and NEVER sent me the drivers after repeated calls...... until Dell brings tech support back to the states we will have to put up with the BS. Good Luck hun.... send me all those ol' pics of you and I'll keep them safe!!!!
