Al, I'm sorry I took some time getting back to you.....still wrestling with
installation.....seems XP won't let go. I place the 7.04 CD in the cdrom
drive and wait 'til it comes up and when it does all it will let me do is a
sort of walk through tour of components....there's nowhere where I can key
in on an installation icon.....I tried 'formating' off of My Computer, C
drive and can't complete the operation. Ditto with the 'kill' disc.

I tried rebooting with the disk in, still no luck. What else can I do to
make this work?

Thank you.

Michel

I'm sort of new at this and I'm a bit confused...my original question was
assigned #17763 and you are now refering to another under #17766....??

Regards,
