Thanks Michael!

I did the above and deleted the values under "hdc" "0000"thru "0003".  I
restarted and the computer hung.  Soft boot and the exclamation under hard
disk controller went away.

Performance, under System, still said it was running dos mode paging.  I went
back and deleted the hdc key altogether.  Now there is no hard disk controller
listed in device manager and it is still in dos paging mode and still has the
"MBR modified " message.

What do I do now?  Should I reformat and start from scratch?

TIA
Kevin Nowicki
