I do the same thing, Demo. OS and my productivity and utility apps all go on the small partition. MP3's, games, videos, those all go on my larger partition and secondary drives.
Partition magic is great, but you can accomplish it just as well with FDisk, which comes free with most versions of Windows (unless you have some horrible OEM "restore" disk that doesn't actually let you do a real reinstall). |

| Ok, my computer is finally shutting down (combination of things...thanks Hank Scorpio for the SpyBot site...I think that helped the most)...except NOW when I try to open my e-mail (yahoo), it's SOOOOO slow! I'm assuming it has something to do with Spybot, (yes, I have "always allow cookies from this site" checked), but it takes 2-3 minutes for the page to show. Do I have to try system restore to take it back to NOT turning off again? I've tried fiddling with the SpyBot settings, but don't get anywhere. |

I think you will have to WAIT for 2 or 3 minutes, then the page should show.  |

Sure! I'll take it! I've been looking for a Gmail invite! I've been using Google since it began and would love an "alternative" account. Thanks!
Oh! I undid everything that Spybot did, now everything works fine! Who knows what goes on in the mind of my computer! |
