      Edit your system.ini file so the [boot] section contains this line shell=explorer.exe You'll need to boot from your Me startup disk (or other disk with DOS on it) since AFAIK you can't boot from the HD and stop at the command prompt anymore in Me. :mad: --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ #include "buffy_sig"
