thanks guys,
unfortunitly my new computer crashed taking everything
with it. all it says is error 106 and reboot on a blank screen.
i'm on an old machine that still runs now.
i hope i can take it somewhere to be repaired and they can
save my pictures.
wish i knew more about these machines.
thanks

To bad you are not closer as I can likely save all of your pic and doc's etc.
My trick is to use a live Linux cd which boots and runs off the cdrom only and then you can access the windows hard drive and save to a usb thumb drive. I have had good success doing this.
Mepis Linux or PCLinuxOS come to mind.
Be glad to help if I can
I guess I am kind of a Linux geek
