I finally got it, but I had to wipe the entire hard drive, losing some
programs I wanted that were on another partition. No big deal, just
means I have to download them again. But get this - NT said my 8Gb
hard drive was too large of a partition to install to, so I ended up
having to cut it to 2Gb. But the FIRST time I installed, it didn't
care.
I hate windoze . . . .
