Nope, nothing unusual. I boot using grub, but it happened back when I was using LILO as well. I've got a couple machines that dual boot Win98 & Linux, but this problem only shows up on one of them. The recent mention of it here is the only indication I've ever seen that this is a legitmate bug in Windows that affects people other than me. I do suspect something with McAfee anti virus software, which I have on the machine that does experience the problem but not on the other machine. The post that originated this discussion (sorry, I forget who posted it) seemed to indicate the same. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
