>>You forgot to re-install SP3/SP4 after each network change... Oh? Such as what? Maybe I've lucked out, but I have not had this problem after (say) installing a new NIC or various other changes. Do you have a handle on what sort of network change triggers this problem? Spots PS. Good to have you back, Sean. Removes some heat <ggg>. I admit I ask for it.

Sean, it's amazing... I've been struggling with this for days now, and it hasn't been but 1 hour since my ISP called with this very same solution. It really makes sense. Each time the system asks for the NT CD, I should know to run SR3 over again. Never thought of that! THANKS!! BTW, my new ABIT/BH6/Celeron has been running at 450 and 2volts without incident since I turned it on! What software can you recommend to "stress test" the machine for reliability?

Sean, one more thing... I just installed WinNT on my boss's laptop, expecting it to ask about wiping the disk. It didn't. I now have the old junk there as well as WinNT, and really don't want to start over. What's the procedure to remove Windows95 once NT has been installed? I don't mind blowing away the directories for applications and leaving the reg entries behind for awhile, unless you think this is asking for trouble. Win95 shows as an optional boot...
