By following the advice of tech support (NOT OmegaResearch) I got my Windows 
95 operating system totally messed up. The last advice given was to format 
the C drive and reload everything. Fortunately, I do have a backup on a 
separate hard drive of the entire C drive except for the windows folder. I 
had been having some problems with W95 and have been thinking of going to W98 
which I just happen to have a CD of, so it's sort of forcing me to do what I 
should do anyway.

The problem is I'm not so savvy about how to do this. As I recall, I should:
1. Format, or is it FDISK, the C drive
2. Boot using the floppy for the CD drive 
3. Insert the W98 CD in the CD drive and let it load itself

My questions are:
1. Is my recollection correct?
2. What are the commands to format, or FDISK?
3. Is there a good web site that outlines this procedure?
4. Last, and most related to the list, is after I get TS 4.0 reloaded, just 
what files do I copy over to get the workspaces and charting?

Thanks much for all the good help that this list provides,
Dan
