I am the only user. Ok I wil l try that. If i have any further questions I will come back.
Is there anyway I can check for updates for Vista on my XP computer? I mean download it there and install it on Vista later? I know with service packs you can do that but for general minor updates...
I have two PCs one has Win XP 32 and the other has Vista 64. I want both machine to be networked so I can exchange files etc.
Both have internet access currently. I want the Vista machine to have ZERO internet access. So nothing from Vista machine can go online. Yes I can pull the plug off on...
Ok so I formatted by drive and installed Vista but the two drives returned LOL.
Anyway then I started again.....flashed my Bios to the latest one, used that DBAN to Nuke the HD. Reinstall Vista after doing another quick format and and everything is perfect :-)

Thanks for your reply.
Edit- Case solved! Thanks.
My 3d workstation (non internet use, 3d work only) runs XP64 on Tyan K8WE (Bios 1.04) MOBO, 8GB RAM. Has 4 beautifully working internal HDs connected to it. PSU is 1KW and rock solid.

Which out of these two should I buy for data storage/backup. They won't be used as system drive so data integrity and drive longevity is my main concern rather than speed. They are both priced +- $5 of each other. Both reasonably cheap.
