Hi all,
Who was it said CPU's would make things easier,
Bill Gates?
Thanks for your efforts Gunner, if I read you correctly, I need Win 2000 SP4 or win95 to download these files, niether of which are to hand. I can take it that emulation is a non starter in this case?
Looks as if I will have to wait until No1 son visits me again, he uses MS-Dos and linux and see if he can find a way round this problem.
In the interim I'll try to get back up to speed on the keyboard, been at least 10 yrs since I touched it. The reason was I got hooked into Flight Sims, but lately have been have become dissallusioned with guess what, expensive software that does not do what it says on the can.
Must say I am relieved to find that you encountered the same problems as me, thought I was an imbecile and could not do a simple save to disc.
Will just have to hope there is a CPU buff out there who can come up with an answer.

Many regards to all,

JohnT
