I did get fipsb to work. However , I now keep getting an error
like "vfbackup cannot load vfd.vxd", when I try to boot the toy OS .
There are quite a few messages about this in email archives from windows
users. It seems to be quite sticky. The toy OS company has a page on
fixing the problem, but it doesn't work for me or for some others. This
is my first foray into this kind of thing. The mystery, and lack of
documentation are astounding, particularly when you consider how much
money these people have.
