I ordered a Dell for my sister-in-law with WinXP on it, and have been setting it up for her. In the process I have to copy a bunch of directories from one computer on my network to that box. My net is All Win2K Pro. In Win2K pro I can drag and drop a directory. The transfer starts. I can then select and drag and drop the next directory. That transfer starts. I can do this many times, and although each transfer slows down to share the hard disk / network bandwidth, things just proceed along smoothly. With WinXP Home, when I start the second, the whole process locks up. I eventually get a "network connection lost". Isn't XP Home grand. John W. Colby www.colbyconsulting.com
