Fetched bootinst.exe and boot.bin from freebsd.org and put 'em in
C:\windows\desktop\FREEBSD and did "bootinst.exe boot.bin" and
received a "successful"

F1 and F5 came up as options as always, F1 goes to winfeces but
F5 just recycles. Suggestions?

Then tried option 2 and now get f5?

Know I've got some reading to do there.

Will understand if you don't have time.
