Good thing you don't need all this for an HP, because PC Doctor isn't listing the power supply. I'll log off and open the box and get that info on here anyway, for anyone willing to take a look who doesn't have access to HP model specs.

DoubleHelix, a techie at a store told me that about Office 2003 not being usable on Windows 7. Glad to know he's wrong, but I don't want a new PC. I really want to use THIS hard drive. It occurs to me I'd be better off trying to find & buy a used HP, the model I have, and moving my HD to that box if I must.

One more question. Yes, I'm a noob, and after all these years, too! Anyway, I ran chkdsk, something I have done since the days of Windows 95. So it ran, and then the DOS window closed and that was that. So, newbie question: Wouldn't it have generated a log file? And if so, where would that file be????
