Thanks for replying, been on holiday, and about to go on another, but really appreciate the help...... First of all note that I have been trying 5, not 6, and I do notice an error message, but the lines continue to scroll down the screen too quick for me to read them before it finally grinds to a halt... It does this even before the installer propper starts. I guess a start would be to find out if there is a comand like /p (page at a time) in dos?
Cheers for your help
