Calum:
sorry about that, i knew it could read and write to ntfs discs/partitions, but it claims to be "very experimental" so, having heard one or two grim tales, i reckon that for endusers like myself, best to forget ntfs access for now.

Do you reckon, VoidMain, that it's because nobody can be bothered making this support more stable? i assumed that it was because they had made the ntfs somehow more inaccessible than vfat to someone who hadn't been told what was going on...

Thanks Guys.  I'll burn the info I backed up on a CD and then tranport it to that shitty MS box.  

Well I was reading lastnight about Apache.  My default install came with Apache installed and I'm trying to figure out how to uninstall or delete it.  I want to start off clean and then put a newer version on.  I tried just installing the new version but seamed to have problems.  Like when I try to start/stop Apache it say's command not found.  But I know the apachect1 file is there because I can see it.
  Can anyone give me an idea of where to delete files and what script to modify so that I can cleanly remove it?  I'm new to the idea of not having to un-install and modify your reg if you really want it gone.

voidmain:
Well, NT/2K can also run on FAT partitions (NT on FAT16 only, not FAT32).  Of course you would have to reinstall NT to make this happen but then you could transfer files between them. Another option is to download this free utility that can run under Windows that will read your ext2 Linux partition (if you are running ext2/ext3). It's like a file manager that can browse your Linux partition and copy data from it. I can't for the life of my remember the name of it but if you do a google search carefully you should be able to find it.  It actually worked, I was surprised.
