Re: [H] mapped and external drive annoyances in XP PRO

C, D, E internals with F G for thumbdrive. When I started repairing and building computers in 1998 I started the practice of assigning Drive R to the most often single CD Device. Later, when a writer was added I assigned it to the Q Drive. This has served my customers and I well over the years. To the best of my knowledge nobody has had to move these devices further up in the alphabet. They now have room for hard drives with 5 partitions, external hard drives and card readers etc. I have seen very little (if anything) the manufacturers of name brand computers do to furnish space on the hard drive (at least 2 partitions) to copy data to so that it is not lost when Drive C is formatted. They leave the CD/DVD devices immediately after other drives. If the customer adds a drive, the CD/DVD devices get bumped upwards in the alphabet. We technicians know that most customers have no clue as to what the 2nd partition on a hard drive is for. It sure makes it easier for us to copy their data over before we format their Drive C. My guess is we would not even be having this thread if all computer manufacturers had simply used common sense and built in convenience by partitioning the hard drive and mapping all of the drives, leaving plenty of space between the non CD/DVD devices drives and the other drive.

[H] Nero 7/6 ?
will nero do 16:9 and Dolby 5.1 on capture ? fp -- Tallyho ! ]:8) Taglines below ! -- Even the blind can see money.
RE: [H] Nero 7/6 ?
Will do 5.1, and will upcode stereo to 5.1 (not total comment on that, though the separation to sub is handy) I believe it will capture 16:9. Nero7 is what I'm using at the moment, so only thing I can comment on. -- FIGHT BACK AGAINST SPAM!
