>Hi Al,

>Thanks for the help. Using your hints, I was able to get the system logged onto the network by remembering the keystrokes to log on and password. Then I used my own machine to get access to the boot.ini via notepad. It was a short file and I did not really understand it all but it DID list both options under the operating systems section. So I swapped their positions, held my breath and then rebooted the NT system. YES! I got the vga boot from whence I was able to reset the video.

Glad you got it working! Using the network was a great idea - no doubt you did something like

NET USE X: \\NTBox\C$

to get access to the drive.

For safety's sake, I'd put TIMEOUT=2 (at least) back in the BOOT.INI so you'll be able to troubleshoot again, in future, if need be.
