Kevin,
I have to admit that I hadn't even considered that you were trying to boot
Win Me above 128GB and perhaps if I had known that I might have been able
to be more help. I am however very pleased to read that you have now
managed to fix your problem. At least you now know that using a boot
manager such as BING that you can install your oss in any order that takes
your fancy although I would warn you to be careful if installing Vista.
You might be slightly amused to read that I also solved a problem today -
getting Magic Mail to access a G-Mail account which requires SSL access
which is not supported by Magic Mail. The solution was right in front of
my eyes and simply required me to a) download and install the latest
version of Magic Mail, and, b), most important, to read the MM Help files
which told me that using FreePOPs as a proxy would solve my problem. I'm
not aware of ever having previously opened Help in MM. "That'll learn
me!" vbg

Thank you Mike for insisting I read all the documentation. I read
everything I could and I read this article
http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=201
which told me
that windows me doesnt work on a partition above 128 GB so I moved
the partition to the 2 position just after my 1st partition of 68 GB
and everything works great now. Thank You
