Thanks for the response! WINDOWS! Huh!Smilie

Anyway, I think I will have to use a floppy as the Windows partition is NTFS and if I'm correct I think this means that Linux will not be able to access my Windows filestore...?

This shouldn't be a problem though, just as long as I now know that windows isn't 'modifying' the filetype. Smilie

Cheers
