can't you just burn to a new cd?

IDE will have a approx 40 pins plus separate 4 pin power connector. SATA has a single "L" shape adapter plus either an "L" shape or 4 pin power adapter. Be sure that you know which type of drive you have when shopping for enclosures. There are MANY different brands. Most will do the job...

I see... What type of drive is it? IDE or SATA?

Wow... all this to avoid returning a drive? I am all for fixing stuff, but in this case, I would just send it back and get a new one.

Me either... I haven't run into that one. Sorry Stacy. XP or Vista? Do you have Illy installed on another PC to see if it is the file or Illy that is messed?

Quickbooks for me... but as stated before, ask your accountant. Using the software that your accountant is comfortable with will save you headache and $$$ at tax time.

There is a chance, depending on the kind of drive and where you bought it. You were "copying" the files, right? Not moving them.:Oops: If you "moved" them, I can see your dilema. Hopefully you have a good backup? Just out of curiosity, what was the error that you got when this all...

hmmm... I would return it.

Sounds a little sketchy to me. I would probably return it for a new one. Does it work on any other PC? Also, there may be BIOS (boot settings) that could interfere, but that is less likely being as it worked for a while.

nice... ok. Have you rebooted the PC? Also power-cycle the drive (turn off and on again). Try a different USB port too. If it shows up again, great. If not, you may just have a bad drive.

Is it a new drive? Does it show up in Device Manager? Right-click "My Computer" or "Computer" and choose "Manage". On the left side of the new window, you should have "Device Manager". Click on it. The external should show up under "Disk drives". You should also look under "Disk...

In my experience, Photoshop and Illustrator are a little more robust and give you more design capability, BUT the learning curve is a bit steeper than say Flexi. Flexi is a very mainstream software and many shops swear by it. I just prefer to design in Adobe products. You might try the...

Seriously? I really mean no offense to you personally Checkers, but I strongly disagree. I remember continuous 12 hour (or longer) days, a workout routine each day, lifting 200# soldiers, carrying 50# backpack for miles on end, sleep deprivation, being on my feet constantly (until the point...

Good to see that you figured it out. I love Photoshop! Learn something new about it all of the time.

What application created the .eps? Can you open it in another application? You should be able to open the .eps with a text editor (notepad is easiest) and see the header. It will give you a little info on the file. Any chance you can post the header info here?

I went through the Vocational Rehab program through the VA after cancer forced me out of the ARMY. That is a great program. I am curious. What kind of training are they offering (or are you requesting) for signmaking?

Switching out hard drives in a caddy is really not much different than throwing in an additional drive and dual-booting. You would still need the drivers and to load the OS on the new board.

You would have to lookup hardware models (motherboard and video are going to be the most likely to not be comaptible). Then you would have to put a new harddrive in your XP system (or partition your existing drive), install 98 on it, and then install software and migrate files. No, it is...

Yeah, still same thing. MacBook Pro is still slower than a Mac Pro desktop (similar specs). PC notebook is slower than a PC desktop (similar specs). Macs have the same hardware limitations that PCs do. They use the same hardware as PCs. If you are designing smaller stuff or...

I guess anything is possilbe, but not likely in the way you describe it. You could create a dual boot on your XP system, but MANY motherboards are not compatible with 98/ME. It would be "iffy" at best.
