BOOT SECTOR WRITE VIRUS Y/N

Any ideas what I can do?

Get an antivirus and run it in win98 and make sure all viruses are deleted before you upgrade

Sounds more like you have an anti virus program running. They will cause that to pop up. Shut it off if you do and retry.

Could be your bios... some have virus checkers... if so you can turn it off..

My clock runs funny in XP.

Or I live in a time warp.

But just in my office.

Funny stuff as always Fletch! Macs are very sexy. If they weren't such a pain to upgrade I might be tempted to switch myself.
