Subject: OT Re: Ghosting Libretto drive??
Off topic but:
My venerable 266 pentium which has spent the last two years overclocked
finally gave up the ghost today, causing me to invest in a new motherboard
and processor.
Windows95 of course is unable to see the cd drive, although it's there in
the bios. The drivers to allow it to see it are - yes - on the CD. Bugger.
The cure? wake it up in linux, copy the CD to a hard drive, install from
there. Good to see the boys at MS really thought that one through!
Cheers,
Neil
