Nerelda Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 Where did your friend get their computer? Perhaps they should contact that company. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Besttechie Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 Hi,I think this is a better place for this post. Since it has to do with Windows. This is a general statement to everyone. Questions posted here in the Windows Support forum don't have to be just about programs built into the Windows OS. It can be on any program that runs on Windows or anything that has to do with Windows. Hope that makes it a little more clear for a few people.B Quote Link to post Share on other sites

il_wiccan Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 If you do this in time new drives usually have transfer programs with them to move all the data from the old drive to the new one. I would try that before the drive totally chokes on you. If the software doesn't come with the drive they usually have it on their websites for download....... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bearskin Posted November 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 thanks il_wiccan...it's too late for that. I'll loan him my old win 98 disk and he can use his key numbers...his numbers are legal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
