Thanks Chris
I agree and cannot see how this would be caused by
changing the floppy.
I suspect a corrupted file caused by the user but can only
work with what I am given. The PC has three log on users,
two with passords and one without, one password I do not
have access to, I have checked over the other one of the
password settings plus the one without; both have
administrators privilege rights assigned although when I
try ot access the games I get the log on using admin
privilege. I had thought before looking it over that the
users had been set to limited but not the case.
I will give it a try on a few other ideas but feel that I
might need to reformat and was hoping someone had come
across this before.
Regards
George
