It's raining and I got the day off.

After installing Calmira XP v3.31 (I probably didn't have to do that, but I
thought it might help me), I was able to see that this system does indeed
have a startup folder.  I'll try creating a batch file in the folder and
get back to you.

I'm procrastinating about moving everything to W98SE -- it doesn't seem to
be totally stable.  I've got a spare Maxtor 7200RPM 20GB that I'll
partition and reinstall W98SE.  What would you recommend as a partition
size for the W98SE boot drive and the number/size of partitions for the
16-bit DOS programs that I will eventually move over?

           Cheers ... Gerald
