No it didn't refer to the 516 softload as you stated it was for a 514 
softload so please be specific and clear on what you have been

The flash of 516 went with out pain here as it has for many others 
though appreciate that you seem to have difficulties with it as well 
as the 514 softload in June 09 you had as well, so it seems that 
something is perhaps specific to your machine and !Boot function etc

So as Bernard has also asked what is in your Boot/Predesk directory 
prior to the Configure directory?
