No failed on my wife's Win98SE laptop too, that's a Pentium 2, about 100MHz IIRC.
Exactly the same results as on my desktop PC, but on the laptop you can see 2 windows windows (if you see what I mean), but as they lock up I can't see what if anything is on it. Certainly, the 12 second wait occurs with exactly the same messages otherwise. So, no joy at all. I understandwhat the batch file does (or tries to), so at the moment unless someone is able to help I'm completely unable to get any further with it.
