will depend on how the PC Bios is configured though. The Biosmust be set
to try and boot from a floppy first and failing that it will bootthe hard
drive. You will also need a bootable Dos floppy disk. Any versionfrom 3 up
will work. So, assuming you have meet these criteria, put the floppyin and

older PC then. Can you give more info? Some ofthe older PC automatically
try to boot the floppy, in which case you will onlyneed to have a Dos
disk. If NT is all you have for the computer, you will needsomeone to make
one for you.You can email me at quazar@dcnet2000.com (new email address)

You're right about my PC being old. How does a 386 processor running at
66MHz sound?

By the way, your posts look like one big clump of text to me. Do my posts
look like clumped-up text to you? If it does, you might try to get your
newsreader to put carriage returns and linefeeds so it doesn't matter what
kind of line terminator the program prefers.
