I'm adding a second harddrive to my system. My exsisting harddrive C: is
100gig.
My new hd will be 200gig.
Is plugging it in and formatting it all that is involved?
What are the required steps to partition it into D & E into 100gig each?

Broadly speaking yes
You use Disk Management to partition/format

As for "plugging it in all that is involved", NO!

You need to ensure that the jumpers on the old drive is set to Master (maybe
with slave present depending on the manufacturer of the old drive) and slave
on the new drive.

Settings and help are located on Western Digital's site in this PDF file,
second page. http://www.wdc.com/en/library/eide/2579-001037.pdf

Seagate's jumper settings are he

The partitioning and formatting of the drive is done within Disk Management.
Use Windows help to figure out how to do it.

In case not, keep using "Mickey Mouse" and someone will complain to
your ISP, if not worse......

Dragomir, as a jerk have you always been that way or did you go to a

Maybe he uses the name Mickey Mouse perhaps because he just likes the name,
or maybe
his real name is as stupid as yours so prefers to use an alias.
Maybe he does not profit from using the name as you suggest he might.
I see other other names here like,
New Orleans Novice
*********meg
M.I.5 3/4
T5
I suggest these are nice people just wishing to use an alias, so what's
wrong with that?
It's sad you choose to call people not using their real names 'CHICKEN'
But then I suspect you are a very sad person with next to no friends. If
you wish I'll be your friend and perhaps together we can overcome your
depression.
I guess you will reply with insults, but that's ok. If your picking on me
then at least you might leave someone else alone.

Yours Truly,
Mickey Mouse,
Donald Duck,
and ofcourse Daffy.

What's so hard to understand? If a person uses a "trademark"

the names of their cartoons figures are abused by people who
are to chicken to use their real name or come up with
something unique of their own.

This is plain and simple. I can cite cases I know of. I'll
just tell you this one as it involves a very well-known
Rock-band from the sixties, (still around BTW) and they took
a Pub-owner to court, because he named his Pub after
them. Instead of seeing this as an free advertisement for
them they thought someone else was cashing in on their
*popularity*.

Lemme see, you started to call me names, (while I made a

was normal behavior to use real names and even real e-mail

yourself this has changed.

No, I made my point to the OP, if you didn't understand it,
you have my permission to read my post over and over until
you get it. BTW where did I say that the OP would be getting
some profit using the name Mikey Mouse?

I used a e-mail once with the ending "invalid.org" I was
told unless I *owe* the name I'm not allowed to use it, so
big deal, I accepted the advice.

As to my real name, I don't care if you think it's a stupid
name, I've seen worse then that one, just look in a
telephone-book, who knows maybe your own is among them? :-)

HAND :-)

Have the last word if this makes you feel better.

Some people would rather feel sorry for you like I do and try to deflect
your attacks on people who use a "handle" while communicating on usenet and
the internet. This has been going on for decades and as far back as CB
radio. No harm done and I doubt you or anyone can cite one prosecution or
anyone even getting into any trouble what-so-ever. Unless you can provide
something of substance to back you claim maybe you should leave people
along. You will be a better person for it and you will feel much better in
the long run.

Do you really believe that no one can use the name "Mickey Mouse" by the
way? What if someone wanted to select that name as a legal name for their
child? Do you think they would not be allowed because it is already taken?
Think about it.

Dragomar - once a trade-mark gets widely accepted in society
it not only denotes the trademark name but also gets widely used
in a generic sense. For instance, the word "aspirin" was once a
registered trademark until the public transformed it by using it in
its generic sense. A valid trademark must have a source-denoting
function.

Here "MickeyMouse" refers to the generic use. How do you tell
the difference?, The trademark uses a circle "R".

See:

Anyway, in the future, should you want to comment about
a point of U.S. or international law, please get it right. OK?

Excuse me whom did I "attack"? After all I was called a
jerk, so this seems to be OK, name-calling is used in a
meaningful dialog?

Care to back up this unfounded claim of yours? As to
"registered trademarks":

The rock-band "Rolling Stones" took a small pub-owner to
court, (here in Vienna 6 to 7 years ago) because they didn't
like this name being used in this way. And yes the pub-owner
lost and had to rename the pub.

So if the Disney Cooperation is more "user-friendly" great.
My first post on this topic wasn't mean-spirited, just meant
as a warning as to what could happen.

Exactly, what did your above reply have to do with answering the poster's
question?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
You just stick your nose in, which was not helpful or of any assistance,
really, why did you bother? Using Mickey Mouse as a handle is my choice and
should be of no concern to anyone. If I receive notification from the
Disney corporation I would/will respect their wishes but until then
............Heyyyyyyyyyy Mickeyyyyy!

P.s I leave you with the last word if you like as I won't further reply to
you.

I am sorry if I hurt your feelings. But you really should get around usenet
groups more.


There is something known as "fair use":

Happy reading.

The idea that someone would be forced to stop calling himself Mickey Mouse
or any other name is ludicrous.

Yours truly.
