nah, the problem runs deeper than EAC ive discovered...my computer isnt reading my drive at all. just got off the phone with ibm tech support, my drive seems to be pretty messed somehow. it passes diagnostic tests and shows up in bios, but XP wont read it and it has driver problems in the device manager. did all kinds of tech support stuff, nothin worked. i would do a system restore but i havent set a restore point in oh i dunno 6 months
that would mean wiping out way too much at this point. well see...
