Hi Mike, It appears that one of two things have happened. I believe that I responded to your email suggestion, which I did try. Or in the second place, you...
... <snip> ... Pat, I've no idea whether this will work but it might be worth a try (you've got nothing to lose). It seems from your reports that Xxclone is...
Hi Garry, I have two problems. 1: I have already reformatted the Target Drive and used Xxcopy to provide the copy I have been discussing. 2: The reason I have...
On my machine, the Kodak Pictures folder is in Docoments and Settings, both on the source and the destination drive. The source also holds the Kodak Pictures...
