Oh - one thing I nearly forgot. I have been trasfering aroung 30GB of data from the 11mb desktop to the 54Mb one prior to upgrading to XP. It has taken an AGE. When I tried to transfer the whole of 'My Documents', some 25GB, it said it was going to take something like a day. It didn't - It kept crashing out when the network share dissappeared. I have managed it by transfering a bit at a time but If I try to do more than 1GB I do get problems. When I transfer lGB or less it not only speeds up throughput but the network share stays put!

Cheers
