OK, this is what I did: I booted from the HD into 8.1. With Extension manager, I turned off EVERYTHIHNG (control panels, extensions, etc.) _except_ for the cd-sunrise extension. I rebooted the computer and the only thing loaded was that single extension. When I put my OS 8.0 cd into the drive, it came right up. Sooo it appears that this single extension is the only thing needed in at least 8.1. Is there something different between 8.0 and 8.1 and how it handles CD's? Also, my system is 8.1. Why can't I just create a boot floppy with files from this system? Todd -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
