    EV> In the C:\ Directory, I saw that the BOOT.INI file had a line:

    EV> I copied the BOOT.INI and named the copy BOOT.BAK , and then changed the   
    EV> "timeout=" Value to 3 in BOOT.INI ..   
      
      That time-out is the time you have to choose the different boot   
   alternatives (for multi boot obviously) and also time to press F8 for safe   
   mood and other alternatives -- but for that I think you have to create at   
   least a second boot alternative. A copy of the first will do, if memory serves   
   me right.   
      
      If you don't care, set the time-out to 5 or something -- just so long that   
   you can intervene with the standard boot sequence if needed.
