The way I had to do it was to run the DOS version of "Guest", THEN boot Win95 from the DOS prompt (not really "boot", but start it anyway). I then copied the contents of the Zip disk into a temporary directory on the drive and installed from that directory. Now it works fine, but I agree with you--it was like pulling teeth at first. ------- Randy Whittle rwhittle@usa.net Marshall Graduate School of Business at USC http://www-scf.usc.edu/~whittle I'm for truth, no matter who tells it.
