Hi PW, A long time ago, someone posted exactly what the upgrade was looking to find, and how to create it, saving some disk swapping. A long time ago, and far, far away<G> The file you want is win.cn_ Some times it works, sometimes not. Open NotePad, do not type anything, FILE/SAVE AS, win.cn_ to a floppy Thats it. Regards, /jw ps; not sure if win.cn_ is upper/lower case, probably either.

PW, I think Dave did everything by the book. Since his pc is new, maybe he can get tech support from the manufacturer or from Microsoft. I'm stumped. Dave posted the CD label and the instructions. Simple enough. It would help if someone who has done this installation on a new hard drive could post. What I understand: Dave can boot ok either from floppy or from hard disk. But he did try to boot from CD also. Did that work? My sequence is CD > floppy > hard disk. But his may be different. Should he get into bios and check? You can actually tell by just observing the screen notes on boot. Gottfried
