[Sheflug] Changing Distributions - Complete Linux Newbie question

[Linux [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Dear List I would value your help,

A short while ago I decided that I would take a look at Linux as an Alternative to M$. My computer normally runs XP, but I have installed a new HDD and installed the Mepis distro onto it. Unfortunately when I run Mepis Linux my mouse behaves very oddly. After posting on the Mepis list I couldn't get it sorted. Recently I have downloaded the SuSE Live distro which seems to work well for me. How do I go about switching from Mepis to SuSE on my HDD? I haven't got any valuable data on the Linux drive, but do have rather a lot on the other drives. (I did try searching the list archive, so apologize if this has been dealt with before)

TIA Geoff
