Thanks Mac, that does look to be the answer.
Mixture. No bikkies then?
Making a disc means buying an external drive/DVD, or trusting the data to a stick. I imagine it would be pushing the limits of capacity, and are memory sticks reliable enough to cover such backups?* Can one use an external drive that's already in use, or does it have to be formatted and empty?
I just can't fathom out why they need to make 7 divisions - 2 before C and 4 after.
As an executive toy, this thing is rather pleasing, with graphics that are superb, but it just does not offer a professional working environment.
*OS backups. Given it's only on the drive anyway, it could be lost, and doing a total reinstall 'down the route' could be very problematical. The Windows key is no longer on the case, but embedded in the hardware and requires a dealer's MS disc to extract it. Or so they tell me. A 'Recover' disc would I hope obviate the need for this, but what if one had to download another copy and apply a key?
