I've made more than one copy on an HP (the first attempt failed 3/4 of the way through). There was one registry change to make in order to be allowed to make a second copy. If I still had an HP, I'd track the key down for you. It's probably googlable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
