Hi Eric, I posted about CPU upgrade for your system there's a good page here that migh be of interest: http://homepage.hispeed.ch/rscheidegger/p2b_procupgrade_faq.html Re the boot problem, lots of people have this with older machines. The first step is to make certain the CDROM drive is attached to a motherboard IDE header and not an add in card. Try putting the CDROM as the slave on primary IDE channel. Then set the BIOS to boot first floppy, then CDROM, then HDD. If all that looks good, can you boot any other bootable CDs like and old Win95, Win2K, etc, install CD that you migh have handy?

What would you suggest for a boot image that I can rawwite to a 1.44M floppy and bootstrap the cd? Thanks, Eric
