    You can try AOMEI Partition Assistant Standard and it is freeware hope that will help!

    Durkinjt, if I had as many problems as you do, with computer related things, I would just give it up.

    Seriously, does anything you do with computers go right? It sure doesn't seem so.

    Him & my dad would get on well,i tell my own "farzsher" (you'd have to have seen austin powers 3 to get that joke),that he should'nt be allowed near computers,to be fair there hasn't been any issues for 3 months,however i still don't know why my dad rings me asking if my internet's working when he's on the other side of our town & with a different isp & connection type when his isn't working..lol..the below link should be standard advice with anyone who has a computer issue..hehehe

    @ ddp
    can you not change to open dns or some other circumvent

    The skit is a brit comedy series called the IT Crowd,the only advice they give even after going thru certain steps to sort a computer out is to say to the caller & every other caller is "have you tried turning it off & on again"

    @2oldGeek
    once on youtube page the 2nd one down "moss introduces jen to the internet" then the vid below it "jen brings the internet to the share holders meeting" . < that one there is so true lmao

    Durkinjt, if you are older then GrandpaBW it won't be much as I figure he is at least 65 if not older.
