You either lost it or never installed it. :-)

IIRC, you can get the folder back with Selective Install. Click on Next
until you get to the page listing Optional System Utilities. Check it.
Click on More and select Installation Utilities.

If that fails, just run \ibminst\npconfig.exe from either the hard drive
or the Warp4 CD.

Don't ask. :-)

That may well be true, but I sure can't find them, so you need to resend
them. The last correspondence I have on your abcde problem was regarding
nslookup traps.

Keep in mind that while you may be frustrated by your inability to resolve
your problems, the folks on this list are busy as times and the help is
given for free.

>What "process"??? If you've got one, I sure wish you'd share it with me,

I did. It's the same process we used to get working boot diskettes for
you AMD box.

I guess I'll say it again. I don't know how to fix struggle. If you
provide an explanation of the failure that I can understand, I or someone
else can usually provide a solution. However, until we understand your
explanation of the problem, solutions are unlikely.

For which system? Again you are not being clear. We have, so far, worked
with you an at least 3 different systems. You may know which system you
are talking about and exactly what you think you have on the diskettes and
in config.sys. I can only guess and I tend to be a bad guesser.

Like I said, I'm a bad guesser.

>apparently insists on it being very close to the beginning of the drive,

Again insufficient information. Define close. Warp4 can only boot from
partitions located in the first 1024 logical cylinders.

That's expected. MS decided to use the same partition type code for NTFS.
