[quote]That's lotsa fun. Believe me.[/quote] It's really ain't that bad Doc. I do it a few times a year, just for that new PC feel. The speed and freshness of a brand new rig come back after a format and reinstall. I do it at least twice a year. If you keep backups, it really ain't so bad. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

OK peeps. I got it! After shrinking my C drive and creating a new volume there, I had to run 7's install from Vista, not from boot. Booting from the disc didn't work but running the disc in Vista and telling it where to install did. So it is finally done!! I have my laptop back!! Thanx for the help all of you. Satas and IDEs don't mix well, it seems.

[quote]Also you have to install to the partition from the c drive where windows is installed and install to a partition that is a primary partition. Active means only which is loaded first up at boot - like the default OS and such...[/quote] I did all that and 7 gives me the error that it can't create or find a partition there.

[quote]PuterDudeJim how big is your sata drive....?[/quote] Now that sounds like a personal question...lol!! Not! I think it is 230GB. That may be a good idea. Shelby GT, I think it has to do with the fact that my second internal drive is IDE, the first is SATA. Both are primary.

Ok, guys. I have a problem I have been talking to others about on this forum but getting nowhere. I want to dual boot with Vista already installed. I can't get 7 to see my F drive, which is my second internal drive and where I want 7. Could it be because the first drive , the one containing Vista, is a SATA drive, and the F drive is an IDE drive? I was told to format F and not to make it active. No good. I was told to make C inactive, can't figure out how to do that.

[quote]I have an idea! Let's see if we can get me as many subs as Zubaz has Karma points! That would be a cool contest. And the person who buys me the most subs, get Zu's KP.

I see it like this. I subscribe out of loyalty, and to support a place that got me started in skinning, and will hopefully do the same for many more. $30.00 a year is $2.50 per month. Equivalent to a six pack of MT. Dew. I will give up a six pack of soda a month for a sub here where I get several free premium skins per year, a place to share my work and develop my skills, and a place to meet others who will ultimately become my friends and tutors, mentors, and students. A place where I can g

[quote]If you change the icons on the taskbar to small ones the Taskbar goes normal size.... How do you do that? Start menu, properties, in that window you will see it in there with a little tick box.[/quote] Awesome! Thank you! That looks better. Like Brad said, That taskbar's a mess!
