baker7 Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Hello Everyone:Well, I have been busy with preparing to receive my backup machine from the office downtown. This evening, I had the tech pull out all of the drives that were in Emmanuel and Defiant, and had him place the Hard drives from both machines into my newer 1.2GHTZ machine. I also have a IOMEGA JAZ drive that I like, so he's gonna place that card in with the machine, so I will have ONE machine with all drives from my older computers. Once the machine is all buttoned up, we will put XP Pro on her, and then update her, and then I will network her to Oddessy.I have wanted to retrieve the data on the internal drives for a while now, so this will allow me to do so with access on both machines. I think I will name the new machine Madison - after my niece - then we will work on the Linux server, and get her configured. Dan asked me for the OS Disc for XP Pro because the version that is on it now is slower then the devil and the settings are fouled up, so a fresh reload will help get her all cleaned up and ready to roll I'll post specs later on her Wish me luck!!Brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
