Just a quick check you can do: Go into your BIOS setup and see if the system is set to boot from C: then A:, or to ignore the floppy on boot. If so, then you need to make sure that the boot search order is A:, C:. This doesn't fix your other issue (not being able to run single-user), but it's worth checking. Chris -)----- -- Christopher R.
