    IIRC it's in the Add/Remove Programs control panel applet. Either that or you can go http://www.bootdisk.com/ .

    ah, yes.

    I tried bootdisk.com, the creation utility kept giving me errors.

    Thanks for your help , I knew that it was somewhere in the control panel

    In DOS its "FORMAT A:/S" to make a minimalist boot disk (useful for flashing BIOSes) - I might have the wrong slash typed, though.

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    Nope, it's the correct slash

    it's backslash for drive specification, but forward slash for a format parameter. Strange, I agree
