    Thanks to the guys who helped with the drivers for my cf-19.
    Another question I have is can I erase the hard drive? If you have any tips anybody let me know.
    Thanks.

    If you have the recovery disks... There is an option that will let you do that. Otherwise you will ned to remove the hard drive, attach it to a USB encosure and format it on a desktop unit. After that I normally write data over to the hard drive and then reformat it.

    There are also utilities that can do this for you. Acronis is free for 30 days... You could use that...
