Sorry about the chat post, but ...... Just one small point, Where did you get a bootable win98SE CD. The originals did not boot. They came with an install floppy. Win95, win2k etc were bootable, but not 98SE. -- Stay well and happy Heracles -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
