Thanks. I'll probably try the dual boot mode before totally committing to
Win2000.

Guy and Guy!
1) Re. DOS programs
I don't have that many DOS programs anymore but the ones I have seem to run
OK. Still perhaps not been exhaustive enough. If problems pop up I will
report them to you.
2) Re. dual boot mode
That is a good idea actually but I've now converted both of my hard drives
to NTFS so will do that once I need to upgrade one of my HD's. Guy that is
also a good way for you if you want to test your old Clipper programs.
Best regards,
Yngvi

You can easily install Win2000 in dual boot mode, so that you can
always boot back into DOS or Win98. Just leave your current OS on the
C: drive, and install Win2000 on D:. When it boots, Win2000 will
offer to let you boot the old OS.
