I don't want to show that i'm uninformed, but MWAVE on a 600..??
i'm just getting my first 600E to play with today (for a customer.. who
wants win98 on this winNT model) but i thought the 600 had a winmodem?!
the fact that "IT" wants 278meg tells me that something is screwed up..!
you could easily get around this by using a 2nd HDD if you have one
available (just for the install) but i still question the validity of
the error..
