An upgrade to www.bicycle-stuff.com
Mar 4th, 2013, 12:10pm
 
Dreamweaver, the program I use for Bicycle-stuff has been taking almost 5 minutes to load so I decided to get a new one.
I have been having fun loading the new computer.
first off I have a optical (I think) drive for the system files so the computer will boot up faster..
It is drive C: and my terabyte drive is drive D: (d for darn)
Every program wants to go on Drive C:, It has been a real thrill getting programs to load on to Drive D: instead of C:.
And then there are always the programs that do not work on Windows 7, so far nothing to serious except my old Microsoft office, I may have to buy a new program.
On the other hand, once a program is in, it only takes seconds to load, sometimes it scares me it is so fast.
Then I had to transfer the data.
Nothing to it, I plugged in my USB  backup drive and transferred the files to the D: drive.
After it was all done, I realized I hadn't done a backup for a week or three, so anything new did not get transferred.
Those I had to transfer by thumb drive.
Now Dreamweaver loads in seconds instead of minutes.

nice - now what are you going to do with all of your free time?
 
you can try Open Office or Google Docs while you decide if you are going to get a new copy of MS Office
