Right click my computer, click manage then click disk management.
This will display all physical disks and all partitions and the status of each partition.
The physical disks will be disk 0 disk 1 disk 2 etc
The volumes (partitions) on each physical disk will have drive letters assigned c: d: e: etc.
You need to be sure that you can safely remove/delete/reformat the disk/ partition you wish to before proceeding.

I would take up Mannesty's offer and install tight VNC and let him have a look remotely.

Hope this helps

I would love a long lens for these kind of shots.
If you are interested there is a regular poster on the RPS website who seems to specialise in Bird photography. Some of his shots are stunning.
Sadly I dont think he uses Pentax equipment.

Good shot.
Take a look at the link below. Very interesting would never have thought it would have worked, obviously it did.

I cannot guarantee however that the cameraman was using a Pentax camera. The link is to show the technique.

Not sure if this will help anyone but I certainly found it useful. A guide to using old lenses on new pentax cameras.

Have you thought about Acronis?
http://www.acronis.co.uk/homecomputing/products/trueimage/

Automatically creates incremental backups etc.

Recovery manager so you can still boot if your O/S fails.
I have used Acronis and it is very simple to use.

Follow link above.

Free software below but I havent used these so cannot comment on their suitability.
