Hi-Mark,
Thanks for your response, I appreciate it. BUT - I can't get to any
desktop, system, admin menues...
I can get to a cmd prompt but that runs me around in circles from login
in to ~$ prompt!!? I don't know what that means.
There should be prompt cmds that will get my desktop back, right?
Thanks for your help.
John in Dallas.
