Look in your C:\config.sys file and see if you find any line with a reference to the "bi-di.386". If you see it, type "rem" without the quotes at the beginning of that line, save the changes and reboot. If for some reason the machine should not boot up after this change is made, then boot the computer into DOS, & undo the "rem".
