Jaguar,
Thanks for help but yes it just locks up the PC during boot. What I am
trying to do is save the patch to my bootdisk. I go to the Mandrake web site
and have found the patch but when I try to save it to my boot disk it states
that the disk is not formatted. Not sure is this is because I am using
windows or not but I need this fix.
Matt

Are you sure it has totaly stopped??? I know with mine on a fresh
install...it
gets to certain services (AMD, POSTFIX ( I think that one anyways) and sits
there...I guess it times out waiting for the services to start...sometimes
well over a minute. To fix these sine I don't use them...when booted...I
disable those services.
