Actually, it was Quantum and WDC drives with which I got OEM documentation, one from Fry's, one from -- CDW is it? I forget, but anyhow just across Lawrence in Sunnyvale by the Price Club (or is it Santa Clara there?). I live at the other end of the country (local to Minotaur, in fact), but I travel to silicon valley from time to time. I always seem to come back toting a bag of high-tech items ... Spots

ZP Where is NT Just got back from the newly designated Big Boy. Having to shutdown to switch this monitor from machine to machine is a hassle but it surfaced a shutdown weirdity. I get NT to say its safe to shutdown but when I either press the power switch or use Orbits keyboard route just the monitor goes to sleep but BigBoy keeps on ticking. I finally had to pull the plug. This may be something I will have to ask Jon about. Entering the BIOS did not turn out to be in my repituare (sp) so I haven't located either OS. But I did get my new mouse software installed ok. Some BIOS info flashes by during startup. Soooo.......sorry to start out with such a rudimentary question but..... how the %$#@* does one get into BIOS to see what is installed where.... Clarence
