What type of ram is in there now? It's best to have matched ram, at least it was a few years ago. Sometimes you have to match voltage and CAS latency. www.cpuid.com has a nice program that will give you the model number of your ram.

[Hellfighter]

here you go scott

i don't recall my account info at CPUID CPU-Z G1 host
been a long time i use it
==========

did found out the key-broad shortcut change task manager (taskmgr.exe)
windows xp was; "alt + Ctri + Delete" (i use to this)
windows 7 its; "Ctrl + Shift + Esc"

[SilentTrigger]

windows xp for msconfig works for both windows 7 as will

windows flag key + r ; run: msconfig
==========

already split it 200Gb and 500Gb and even had it full with 5Gb save space not use unformated to encase it needed it. i am at a lost

hard drive works great only can use system save on it
=====
the USB Hard Drive case work great a small bug in the soap it should have to rubber mat liners for the stand, only one came with it

will going to buy me some mole-skin (made for blasters on the heel and other places) should do the trick

i trying to work this out

found this online but this part i don't understand it be-on me

Simulating a nearly full System Reserved partition:
In the screen shot below I have temporary assigned a drive letter (Z so that I can display the contents of this partition when using Windows Explorer. I purposely stuffed an extra file (xyzzyy.tmp) into the 100MB partition to forcefully create a nearly full partition.

Hope I'm not too late, D drive is a UDF format disk (None Drive standard used for large dvd discs but not recognized by windows as a suitable system backup drive, you need to direct the image to drive E

here is an image of my system drive specs

[Hellfighter]

will i gave up
backup and restore option is full of errors
when making a copy of the flies transfer to another HHD

Windows 7 - Backup and Restore Error code: 0x81000033

all the time it get to (basic) 65% bam stops on it own for no real reason i can see other then that error message kick in

wish it wouldn't make a shadow-copy! but go right to burn on to the external HHD USB

[Guest001]

All of these types of thing can be buggy no matter what you do and think, it's probably easier in the long run to just backup your files etc... then reinstall the OS, unless you regularly make system image backups (time consuming) you end up with an old image down the track anyway

Getting some 3rd party proprietary or GPL imaging software could help you.

Norton Ghost is a reasonable one but a bit pricey etc

here is a comparison table

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compari...oning_software

[Hellfighter]

if i recall right don't think Norton ghost didn't handle say 250gb large hard drives

[Steve]

maybe an old version, but ghost will handle any drive.

Acronis is far superior however: http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/
