FBW - WHEN everyone got to page 3 you told us what you really wanted! I do not moderate THIS forum, so EMFBI, but I know Crash asked everyone to give as much detail as possible on P1. Your P1 post was misleading, and thereby a few collars have become heated unecessarily. There is a large number of helpful and patient people here and they have been trying to help. This sort of help would cost you big dollars in the commercial world. 'Sorry' would not go amiss! Nuff said?

Beags - I would offer Laplink for starters. You can run another PC via its screen - either by cable or even down the modem, as well as up and download files to your heart's content! I got my copy (free!) from a mag. PM me. The 'cheap' built-in option is MS Direct Cable Connection which uses serial or parallell ports. There is also a USB connection cable that costs around £25 and does the biz. Floppy would take forever and we are all finite(!) and would entail disk spanning no doubt?
