Thanks to all those who made suggestions on how to rectify this problem but I found it had nothing to do with the files or even hardware. I only submit this information to the list in hopes that it prevents someone else from overlooking the not so obvious. The specific mother board CMOS that I have allows you to choose whether to boot to the floppy drive or not. I, unfortunately, enabled this thinking it was the same as the boot up sequence ( A, C on most systems ). Well, it wasn't and apparently made it impossible to use the boot disk that I had created. Only after disabling this in the CMOS did the machine accept the boot disk. So, thanks again and keep up the great work. JS Jeff Shipper InterNetwork Systems Administrator Internet Supply, Inc.
