> qemu -L c:\progra~1\qemu\pcbios -serial com2 -fda a: -boot a c.img I may have had a similar prob using WinXP and rawrite. I had to continue cursoring down to see an error preventing writing a boot image to floppy. Dunno how Win-Eyes handles the command prompt, but it seems that it doesn't keep up with screen scroll. Same goes for using mIRC for chat. HTH, Michael
