Hello again. Don't mean to bug you so much. Just wanted to let you know I
did change it to C:\ since it was at C:\I386. Didn't work though. I also
changed it at the Windows NT as it said to in the tutorial that S.Sanguta
suggested. I explored my restore cd and couldn't find the I386 file on it to
reinstall. So, I'm thinking I'm out of luck and will have to somehow get a
Windows XP CD. Thanks for all your help!
