Don't tell me i am behind the times and had not noticed (Hee hee).
I am investigating upgrade to XP but not sure what data I may lose ?
Hopefully this would eliminate my connection problems, but may increase other problems with data loss etc, not sure best way to back up system as win backup not enabled.

Thanks for now :con?

Cheers for that but got fed up trying, have upgraded to XP now !Works a treat, mind you took me 7 days to sort out conflict problems.
