You can install windows with absolutely no prompts beyond the initial command. The instructions are in the resource kit. This is convienently placed on the distribution CD, along with a sample file. I believe in win98 it creates a file for you when you run installation anyway. You will also find that this file has already been created in almost every oem installation right along with the cab files. It may be tedious, but it really isn't hard. ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk@1tree.net "When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million missle at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.
