        Actually, I'd be a little nervous of doing a "clean" install (as
you put it. I wouldn't erase my entire hard drive without a good backup in
place.

        Unless you back it up, then I'd just go with a "regular"
installation of Win '95 and once you're satisfied everything works well,
*THEN* remove the other stuff from your disk.

        Women often ask, "What do men really want, deep in their souls?"
The best answer--based on in-depth analysis of the complex and subtle
interplay of thought, instinct, and emotion that constitutes the male psyche
--is that deep in their souls, men want to watch stuff go 'bang'.
