Thanks, David, but I'm just a dumb Okker (must be, moving from Syd. to
Melb.)
I can see what you're saying and what the instructions are doing, that makes
sense, but XP doesn't have pure DOS per se., so how do I get into a 'DOS'
situation to make these changes- that's what I meant.
BTW, I've hardly ever played with DOS on the older OS's, so need to be led
by the nose.
