Hi Kirk
Chris Morley sent me some info, and some commands to type in to the
computer, and touch wood, cross fingers, the floppy did all come life.
The icon in the Place is also there, and it read the floppy disk, I'm
waiting for Chris to OK my next move. 
Dave

I think you need to verify that the floppy drive and floppy disk is
working properly. Do you see your floppy drive show up in the CMOS/BIOS
status screen?
