Thank you all, very much. Yes znod, I should never allow a husband to take a computer to be 'fixed'. For the last 17 years, I have almost always used my desktops. However, I became laid up last year and had to use my little Inspiron 1525 laptop. Worked ok most of the time, but occasionally and...

I might just do the master boot thing. Will let you go now but will get back to you tomorrow, after I have a go at it. Thanks so much for all your help tonight. Moenna

Thank you Helios. I might just put Vista back in, after I send all this stuff I've saved here, on to my desk top. At the moment I am bedridden, so have been forced to use this laptop. Moenna

I am very upset, that my old MGI Photosuite 4 Platinum edition, will not work in W.8. It will not even work from Dropbox. Moenna
