On Friday 13 Aug 2004 09:32, Tony S. Sykes wrote: > > Your never to old for games. > Yes :) Indeed :) Despite this I am S glad I've moved to Linux though, it has taken a lot of headache out of somethings that Windows does which i don't like :( Also, I've found the files. I was "playing around" with Midnight Commander and found that the files were not "gone" afterall. I had mounted the folder on from the XP machine on the Linux machine using LinNeighborhood. Then moved the files over. They had not appeared on the XP machine. It turns out that a folder was created in the /mnt/XP/ folder and the files moved there! I've now managed to get them over, and I think it's time I sorted out some of the links and file shares across the network. Now a happier bunny.

Re: [newbie] Scream!
Alas. If I could run my games and Ameol on the linux machine I would happily move over. Alas not. I'm feeling better today, a bit more relaxed... Perhaps the caffine is helping me relax more :) Elwyn Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com

Windows on the other machine, and the other machine is for a few games and some other bits of software that is not portable to Linux. I think the XP machine will go back to being 98 because I really don't like the way it changes its own settings on its own whim :( Elwyn Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
