MyComputer Click on C: drive icon Click View --> Folder Options --> View tab Scroll down to Hidden files and check-mark "Show all files" Clcik OK Look at Total objects in lower left-hand corner, should be <= 512 If you need to edit sys.ini you will need to install sysedit from the Win98 CD as MS didn't include it in Win ME. Place your Windows98 disk in your drive, hold the Shift key down for 10-15 seconds to keep Autorun from executing or close the menu if it appears. Click Start --> Run and type in msconfig msconfig should default to the General tab. Click the Extract File button and type in Sysedit.exe Click start button. In the Restore From: type in the path to your CD-ROM drive and the folder Win98 or Browse to the Win98 folder on the CD. In the Save file in, type: C:\Windows\System or use the Browse button to set the path to your Windows\System folder. Click the OK button When it prompts to save a backup, click Skip as there is none to save. -- Gerry Boyd ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
