Thank you for your reply Dam I have the floppy which says "Master Restore Disk" and the CD. The instructions say to insert both then restart. I do this, then the message "unable to create error.log" flashes and the PC makes a low beep (sinister sounding noise, really). Then the process stops there. The message actually flashes on very briefly and I have to hit enter to see it for a brief second. Should the 3.5 not have room to write the error.log, any ideas how to resolve this? Thank you
