Are you trying to get to Disk Management?


I've already got to where I wanted to go and solved the problem, but
that isn't the point.

As I've tried to say, I couldn't find the specific features referred
to in those instructions weeks ago and it seemed that there was
something missing from my XP. I don't like having stuff missing. I
didn't ask a techni cal question. I posted saying I couldn't find
it. It seemed simple enough and innocent enough to me. But now I'm
a troll!!!!
The reason for the "missing stuff" has been explained by N. Miller.

Thanks


Glad you got it worked out; that's the main thing.


There is an excellent article on how to restore restore. But I don't even
know where I saves it now.

I'm sure it was clear as a bell to you


Actualy yes:

--------------------
Subject: Missing Control Panel feature?

Body: I cannot find Performance & Maintenance, no Drive Settings, no
slider anywhere.
--------------------

That seems clear as bells and glass, plain as the nose on your face, etc.,
etc. I can only guess at why people were determined to think it was all
about something else. It moggles the bind.

Thanks

If some scientist doesn't think it makes sense, then it doesn't make sense;
ergo, nothing makes sense, because someone found fault with every theory
ever developed. Ecc 1:14

I have two laptops available, right now. Newer HP Pavilion dv2210 has one
Windows key on the same row as the [Space_Bar]. Older Toshiba Tecra has a
Windows key on the top row, near the Pause/Break key. But I suppose a
different brand might not have a Windows key at all.


I have a T42 ThinkPad, made to run business applications all day every day
until the cows come home and the Martians land. In that world Hot/New is a
foreign language and robust is taken for granted, which suits me just super
fine.
