Awesome!  I set all the drives to none in BIOS and put in the Win95SR2 startup
disk and I got to an A: prompt!!  Amazing I can get excited about that huh?
Anyway, I went to Shuttle site and got updated BIOS and flash utility
(555wiq0H.bin and flash533.exe).  I put those on a floppy.  I booted machine
on SR2 floppy.  Swapped floppies and put in the one with the new bios and
flash utility.  At the A: prompt I typed in "flash533  555wiq0h.bin" (without
the quotes) and all I get is a message saying "data error reading drive A
Abort, Rety, Ignore, Fail?    Although I can do a DIR command and see the
files, I can't seem to execute.  Any ideas?  Thanks again, you've been a big
help so far.
