I have finally convinced my mother to upgrade comp. We are having trouble saving some of the files to A: It says error 27 on disk. I have tried different disks with same results. A friend of mine said the hard drive may be going out. The problem seems tohappen with larger files but not to large to fit on the disk.

Bye, Gaby
