In any case, try       a disk cleaning and a reorg, if needed. With a big copy like you did, a       lot of temporary files can be created, which don't always get removed.       And, if the system drive gets too full, the whole system runs slower.              Stef              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
