Thanks for the great suggestions jford and phillyjazz. I will move the file up to a toop level on the hard drive. I think I am have a bigger issue and nothing to do with BiaB. I have had 6 BSOD today and a numerous amount of "Windows has stopped working and needs to restart".

After checking in at my local computer tech center, I believe my C: drive is failing and will need replacing. Ugh how I hate to think of all the software installs ahead of me. The drive is 20 days short of being 5 years old and is a Western Digital Black hard drive which has a 5 year warranty. Whether it is really dying or not, it probably will need to be replaced soon anyway. I don't have an image file because it has always failed when I try do make one (over the past 5 years). I have Acronis bought and paid for and it won't save on a USB drive OR at least I can't get it to save on USB drive.

Looks like my New Year is starting off just peachy! frown

Again Thanks for the help,

Rich Rayer
