69065 2002-08-07 09:26:00 OK, listen very carefully I shall say this only once. You will need a screwdriver, a saw and some masking tape.

First take the hard drive (HD) out of your PC using the screwdriver. Next take the saw and saw the HD in half. An adult can help you if it's too hard. Now comes the tricky bit, turn the back half of the HD around so it's now at the front and use the masking tape to tape it back together. You have now successfully swapped the Windows partition.

Now put the HD back in the PC and turn it on. Don't worry about the whirring noises or smoke coming out. That's perfectly normal and you can download a patch from Microsoft for this.

Now if you don't understand these instructions take the following steps:-
1) Put your head down and run as fast as you can until you feel a bump.
2) Re-read the instructions.
3) Do you understand? If Yes, END; if No, turn around and go to Step 1.

If all else fails then insert the Windows CD that came with your PC.

69067 2002-08-07 09:43:00 OK, I've read your post carefully and I'm glad you still got your Windows CD.

For this operation you may need some vaseline and a leather belt to bite down on. Touch your toes and insert the Windows CD. After inserting the Windows CD you may find a little discomfort when you sit down. It will pass, but luckily Microsoft have a patch for this on their site.

If this still doesn't work then it's a real tricky one. I guess you will have to find a real hard wall to run against.

OK, Tim.

1. If you bought a legal copy of Windows ME then the computer store should have given you a copy of it on a CD. If they didn't - get your Dad to go back to them and ask for it.

2. Without a legal copy of Windows you CANNOT move Windows. If you try to and it goes wrong your computer will not work.

3. I thought your Dad was going back to the computer store with you to sort the problems out?

4. If your game is crashing see if there is a website for it. Often games have "patches" for known faults in the program. These are designed to fix the faults.

5. With your limited knowledge DO NOT try to reformat, repartion, reinstall or move Windows. Doing these things requires careful reading and following instructions. Something you still seem to need to learn.

69069 2002-08-07 09:56:00 Oh Heather, your a spoil sport! Even when he makes a comment in the post that he's happy he has offended you ... or was it a joke? Pretty hard to tell with the timmeister.

I might have pushed him over the edge and got expletives and everything. ]:)

Oh well, the point Tim in case you didn't guess is that you can see how frustrating it is when people don't listen or take you seriously.
