Mike - I am afraid not. I had already changed the drive order in the
BIOS, but it didn't want to see the drive. I am thinking I might have a
CDR/RW problem. :-(
When I try to start from DOS, I get a message saying "This program will
not run from DOS" :'(
I must get the drive checked - a number of discs won't function properly.
Thanks for trying.
Cheers
Rick H
