Right, you get a list of regular DOS commands. But you're not in real DOS, you're in Windows DOS. You see full long names if you do a DIR. >You can also just > reinstall from somewhere in that area before you "repair". Run > chkdsk from DOS and see if that will fix it. A full install wants to format the disk and she doesn't want to lose the address book on the drive. Next attempt is to load Linux (Copperix) or something like that, that runs off the CD. Hoping I'll be able to bypass the "access denied" that is prohibiting me now. My daughter and grand daughter each had separate user IDs and now can't get at the address book.
