All On another note, I installed Netscape Communicator 4.5 on the Mac yesterday for newsgroup access. I was previously running just the Netscape 4.06 Navigator Module. But now I've lost all my message color changes indicating read messages in my SI message folders. Anyone know how to get back to having all my read messages a different color? I think this was answered here a while back for someone else. Clarence

Clarence, you can't boot NT from a floppy. This disk is the one I proposed in an earlier post, but you must make it bootable from DOS (that is, boot real DOS and make a system disk -- I think the command is sys a: .) Then put NTLDR, BOOT.INI, and NTDETECT.COM on this floppy. NTBOOTDD (.sys, I think) is a SCSI disk driver which is required if the boot disk is SCSI but not if it's IDE. BOOTSECT.DOS is the saved previous operating system boot sector, for booting another OS as an NT boot option, if any. As I said, you CANNOT boot NT from this disk, but what you can do is boot this disk into DOS, then replace these critical files on your boot partition if they get clobbered. To do so, your boot partition must be FAT, though. I don't think you can use this with your current setup (your boot partition is NTFS, right?).
