Steve, I solved the first problem, concerning the device missing. It was from vftd.vxd missing in the registry. There was a blank "" setting I has suspected. The link in the page you sent me took me directly to the vxd files and I found it there. Thanks! Any idea what that file is for? VFTD.VXD..... Now, if i can just find the source of the other mystery fault I'll be in pretty good shape. That one doesn't stop the boot process, it's just annoying. I'll take a look at the .ini files and see if that shows me anything. I've searched them for inaccurate directories on previous occasions and haven't found any yet. It's gotta be there, I just have had zero luck tracking it down so far.
