Thanks for all the responses. I did what I planned, re-installed Win95 (OSR2) over the top of Win 98 Beta 2. It was a dismal failure, of course. First re-install: the system would come up only in Safe mode, and the only indication of a problem was a quick flash of "KERNEL" on the blank bootup screen. I cleaned what I could from the registry, etc., and re-installed Win95 again, and then once more. That brought it up, but Mwave still wasn't found so I reinstalled that from floppy, and it still wasn't found, so forth. Spitting into the wind. I ordered a 2.1GB replacement drive because my 1.2GB was full, and I expect to get it in a day or two. Sounds like the right time to just do a clean install of Win95 and copy by backup to the new drive! FWIW, I liked Win98, and I may try a clean install onto the old 1.2GB afterwards to see how it works. But until it's released, I won't count on it for anything important. Thanks again for all the feedback. And, I can now connect to the ftp site for this mailing list. I don't know what changed, but it's letting me log in now. Dean
