Hello,

I have an XP SP2 machine, and I want to move the desktop to a separate partition to my system partition. I moved it over to a different partition, and it copied over, but now it duplicates everything I put on it. I tried moving it back, but it still duplicates everything. Does anyone know how to get rid of this rather annoying problem?

Thanks,
Arachan.
