In the same directory (or in the /tools directory on the CD) you'll find a DOS program that installs BootEasy (I think it's named bootinst.exe or something like that). Run it from DOS! (not win95 in DOS mode) and it will install BootEasy for you. > > -- > Outnumbered? Maybe. Outspoken? Never! > tIM...HOEk Nadav
