The one on the left looks rather grumpy with that black look. I suppose it's a scowl and cross bones.

One good reason to remove any drive that is unrelated to the restore is to avoid the horror story you hear too often where people restore to the wrong drive, wiping out there existing data.

Other ATA drive is empty - waiting for Ubuntu lol

When I installed he new Sata drive (2Years ago) and reinstalled Win 7 on it, the old IDE drive was unplugged! The 100b partition was left over when I wiped the system from it. I have no 100mb partition on new install?

Perhaps this will help:

I've heard of having a 'Skeleton Staff', but the Government Hospital is really stretching itself thin! (Excuse the Pun) Still, Mrs Bones agreed to pose with Mum while I was seeing the Doc at Clinic....

Me again! 

Can you believe it's 2 years since this occurred?

https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=30012.0

I'm planning to recover an Acronis Image - need fresh start again! Do I need to unplug my second drive (now empty and waiting for Ubuntu) before recovery? There's no Boot Record on 2nd drive, except that strange 100mb partition left from old Win7 install.

Help needed:

If you open Spider Oak on your Desktop, you then go to the View tab then find the folder you want, you'll see a small arrow and if you click that you'll find the versions (if you have changed the file) in brackets!

Then if you click on the file you'll see them listed as per my 2nd pic...

Hope this helps!

I now just delete manually as there is no provision and not likely to be for only keeping X amount of versions...

Little do you know that Chris has secretly implemented a transfer protocol and the two programs, (on your machine and mine), are connected ... I'm actually looking through your camera ...

Thanks so much - I appreciate your work! I also use your Start Volume Snack to control the level of sound at startup from my Calendar Voice - works like charm!

A thousand apologies for not seeing your posts!  I get DC posts in my Newsfeed, but for some reason it only came through today?

Okay - I got same message as 4wd, but when Mum plugged the Cam in I got no message and I can't see the icon anywhere in System Tray? Tried adding program to Win Patrol for startup but only get the above box and the CameoSnack is not actually running?

Is there a coding snack or script I can use to alert me if web cam unplugged?
