Thanks guys.  One thing about my system is that the floppy drive seems 
to have gone out a couple years back, and I just never really needed it 
for anything.  I can get to a command prompt using the windows 2000 
install CD though -- all the files seem to be there, and in tact, 
including the NTLDR file which it says is missing.

I'll let you know if I need and can use a boot image.

Angelo
