Tom, If your willing to lose all partitions on the drive, you can boot via a DOS disk and then run fdisk /mbr and then reboot. what that will do is it will overwrite the MBR (Master Boot Record) with a blank copy, removing the ntloader from Windows NT. BTW, Windows 2000 is out in it's final version. If you want to use it, you might as well go out and buy a copy of the released version, and stop running the beta :) -- Jonathan M.

I'm currently running Windows NT 5 Beta 2 (The Beta version of 2k) and I can't for the life of me get rid of it. My bios supports CD-ROM and Floppy booting, but neither the ISO or the images of the floppy kern.flp/mfsroot.flp seem to be recognized at boot time. Windows always kicks in too early and doesn't let the disks boot. Is there something I'm missing? Thanx for your help. > > __________________________________________________________________ ____ Sent via the Pace University Mail system at stmail.pace.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
