Oh come on fellas... we're not transplanting a kidney here. Everyone started at zero at some point, right?

What is simple for you may not be for others? I think we have explained it but are still getting questions. I believe that is why Karl made his suggestion.

I realize that... I'm just saying we continue to answer the questions instead of telling him to give up and hand it off to a friend. Yes?

You get no disagreement from me on that; however, it does rob the OP of that sense of accomplishment. Since he's half-way there already, why not see the job through?

If this was about installing a new CPU, then for sure I'd say get the experienced friend to show you how, but since we're talking about a dead machine and an old hard drive...
