What'n the h*** are you raving about, Heather?
All you have to do is, look at Mart's last thread, I didn't make that up. As
for the rest of your comments, I can do without, thank you.

What in heck is "REAL MODE DOS"???? Is this Merkin-speak for something?

WinME doesn't have DOS. So pardon me if I ask you what in h*ll you are
talking about.

I think it is about time you took that machine into a tech who knows
what he is doing and forget mucking about yourself......you usually
screw it up good!! And then do another reinstall.....#65 coming up?? I
have lost track.

It must have escaped my attention, Mart, but how does one "confirm"
the
CD-ROM (there's only one) in Real Mode DOS?
Somehow I have the suspicion, that's where the problem originated.

Harry,

I still get the very same error message and
nothing changed from the way it was before.

Please give the EXACT error message - and, under what conditions.

Just to recap :-

When things were normal g what were ALL your 'original' drive
letters,
according to Windows Explorer and what drives did you have connected?
(e.g.
A=FDD, C=HDD0, D=HDD1, E=CD-ROM[reader], F=CD-ROM[burner] etc.,)

Are they ALL still shown in WE now and what are their current drive
letters?

Have you confirmed (and tested) the CD-ROM's in Real Mode DOS?

BTW - can you please try to remember to post in Plain Text in the
News
Groups.

Mart

Noel:

After making sure all evidence of "Adaptec" is removed, following
your
instructions, I still get the very same error message and nothing
changed
from the way it was before.
My only hope is replacement, but will it work?
What is the status on my report?

Harry.
