and make a full backup for when it throws up it's famous blue screen.

one thing i learned about oos years ago;

  a-  1- make initial install. 2- tweak. 3- make a full backup.
      then when it crashes, you do not have to repeat 1 & 2.

  b-  when packages or 3rd party are install, make an incremental backup.

  c-  when an sp is released, and installed, make incremental backup.

i learned "my abc's" from running unix, before there ever was oos. :-)

this is last of taking up my time making comments about a
_software_company_ that needs to go 'eol'.
