Your problem is probably heat, instal MBM to watch it and see how hot it may get. Mine takes almost 4 hours on average lately. Do a search on the web for mbm and you should find one that can do it. Are you overclocked, have you changed voltages etc.? I am running the FOP38 fan on the processor and find that it works well. Understood about the backup situation, I am running NTFS as well with no problem, but you can not read an ntfs drive from DOS. You can back up to FAT32 but it has a 4GB file size limit. that can be a gotcha if you use the back up utility included with Win 2K or XP. Good luck. N�XDW
