Thanks for the response Ted.
I did this for a friend so I didnt charge anything and yes it took a lot
longer because I wanted to save the data.
After going down a lot of dead ends, I basically:
1. Took a used drive and copied the data to it.
2. Formatted the existing drive.
3. Reloaded windows and installed avg free and ewido free, updated windows
and copied data back which was mainly music and pictures.
Probably only 2 - 3 hours actual time, but a lot of time wasted going down
dead ends which is why I decided to see how everybody else did it..
In case I run into it again for a paying customer.
Thanks,
