I'm adding a second harddrive to my system. My exsisting

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?

Just about that simple. Depends on whether it's SATA, IDE which needs
master/slave settings, etc. and whether it's been preformatted as many are.
There should have been paperwork that came with the drive telling you how to
go about the installation. If not, check their website for same.
Also, you have not given good information so really, this is about the
only answer you can be given; anything else would be pure guessing.

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.

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

Dragomir, as a jerk have you always been that way or
did you go to a university to become a first class
CERTIFIED jerk?
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,

and ofcourse Daffy.

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

was normal behavior to use real names and even
real e-mail addys on Usenet, I guess it's
because of people like 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.
