You can just burn the important stuff or there are also programs that will allow you to copy your entire hard drive to CD's. As for your JFW key, you will need to move it to it's original disk before you install Linux, as Freedom Scientific doesn't like having their JFW keys copied even during a backup. The key would sease to function if you simply back it up with the rest of your files. Lorenzo We are MicroSoft. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile. -- Attributed to B.G., Gill Bates
