Sorry I violated the rules... I'm running XP so I skipped the first step and ran as admin. Same old story. Went back to setup mode. I went back to the previous step and changed compatibility to Win 98, just for kicks. Nothing happend at all. When I went to change it back, XP wasn't an option. For fun, (of which I'm having sooo much), I changed it to 2000. Noticed that the interface was slightly different, and the dialog boxes mentioned on my previous post had all button accessible! Strangely enough, it seems to be working! Go figure.
