John.
I don't need the automatic updates during startup am happy to do this
manualy.
The PC is a former server from an office enviroment but I have installed W2K
from scratch. My reference to "I have moved from 98SE recently to a Intel
333 PC with RAID" was just to say that I am not familiar with W2K's
operation. With Win 98SE I would have used BLA.EXE (Boot Log Analiser) to
see what was holding things up during startUp.
However at the moment it is cable (Lan) connected to another PC which runs
Win 98SE. That PC (Celeron 400) was/is? My main machine but have HD problems
so am trying to recover data from it that is why the two PC's are connected
at present.
Thanks for your help, Cheers from "Down Under" Peter Stacey.
