Lilo seems to install just fine, but upon reboot, all it get is "LI-", same as before. I do recall some trouble getting lilo installed in the first place, so I'm beginning to suspect the bios settings. The battery seems fine, but maybe I changed something a long time ago that is only now starting to cause MBR problems. Win98 had no troubles booting when I didn't use lilo. -- Did you know that if you play a Windows 2000 cd backwards, you will hear the voice of Satan? That's nothing! If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
