If you do a clean install, you will have a previous system folder in

Not at the point he's talking about. At power on, any
sound that is generated, e.g., chime, is coming from
ROM. Ain't no user choices at the ROM level. Would be
nice though . . .

I have a PB3400/200 80MB ram and a 10GB disk...
I'm

of Netscape I'm using???
No. All versions of Netscape aren't very good anymore. Mozilla isn't
much better. Go with IE 5.x or iCab. That's my 2ยข.

You can find OS 8.5/6 here and there. Power On http://www.poweron.com
is selling it for $79, which seems a little high to me.
Go to LEM's swaplist. Saw it there for around $20 the other day.
Granted, it's not there as a daily occurrence. But post that you're
looking for it. Never know.
The ISP has changed something. New router, new switches,
new modems, new POTS provider Something.
I recently had a similar experience to Jim's. And I'm on a first-name
basis with the guy who runs my ISP. Very forthcoming about those kind
of changes.
