- yeah I noticed. but now after much fooling around, I haven't got windoze
- (3.0 or 3.1). Can I do a selective install safely (I have lots of exams
- and don't have the time to deal with a down system if I screw up!). Can
- I get instructions on how to get 3.1 installed. I'm on a 486/33, 120mb
- ide and a diamond speedstar (et4000). If I can't get seamless with 3.1
- then don't even bother explaining how to install it. I need seamless at
- 800x600x256 as first priority. I'm still stuck using winword 2.0 since I
- can't afford an os/2 wors processor as yet. I'd also like an estimate on
- when I can get an authentic version of 3.1 on my PC (rough estimate if
- nothing better is available.)
