Ralf, I hate to say it but it looks like you are stuck with the Doomsday Countdown of your pre-release Win-dos 98. I had the same thing, and decided to dump it all out because it just got flakier and flakier (even flakier than usual!). To do that I had to just rename the WINDOWS folder to something else then installed 95 over the top of it, ignoring all of the warnings that came up. That install still works OK for me even now. Anybody else know anything about how this can be deflected, I am curious to know also. By the way, the Chinese government just released yesterday a new OS to counterattack Windows 95/98/NT; it is called 'HOPEN 32', and is a OPEN and free system (as far as I can tell). As I find out more I will post it on the message board here. Hope you can fix your problem in time, Norm
