[AccessD] Access XP and 97 hang on reattaching linked tables under WinXP

...lol ...I'm still wondering how you "Get three hard drives.  (SCSI...but
that may be a bit expensive....), Mirror the OS, and RAID a data drive (you
can do all of that in Disk
Management...with Windows 2000, no RAID controller necessary.)" ...this must
be a Drew style RAID configuration that would leave the people at MS gasping
in amazement! :))))
