So here i sit at midnight on a fri, and what am i doing???
Formatting and reinstalling NT 4 server.......
I set it up 2 days ago, and hit enter 1 too many times... now there is no cd rom, and no way to install it.
So foramt, reinstall for the 3rd time... ( 1st time i installed a stand alone, not a PDC like i wanted)
Before you go off about linux/unix.... I have about 6 different versions, from caldera 2.2, redhat, and mandrake, to Free Bsd. Time to play with NT.. i think every one should know 'em both, not be set in one or the other.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Reinstalling stinks no matter what OS you choose to go with.

I got a partition for apps and a partition for my os.

I just put in my os cd and ghost it again.

takes 15 minutes.

Get Norton Ghost.

Seems hard, but it's quite simple.
