Hi,
 I have two weird problems when I try to install Warp 4 on a Toshiba 
T4800CT laptop (it's a 486dx4-75 with 24MB RAM, a 500 MB disk with two
partitions - 300MB and 200MB - a WD94C26 video card, sound card, 2 
PCMCIA slots, etc... and no CDROM drive so I did a floppy install... 
all 90 of them). It's advanced install on the 300MB C: partition :

1- during the install, it doesn't ask me to setup the network support,
it goes from the component screen (where you can select to install the
bonus pack etc) directly to installing the system, no other questions 
asked. I installed from the same copy a while back (with the CDROM 
though) on another system and I remember that it showed a network 
setup screen where you can install TCP/IP and other network stuff. As 
a result, there's no TCP/IP support when the install is over and no 
selective network install icon either so there's no way to add it.
2- IBMWorks... doesn't work. When I launch it for the first time, the 
CPU meter maxes out for a minute or so then it comes down and then 
nothing, no error messages, no traps, no window, nothing. When I try 
it for a second time after that, the CPU meter shows a blip but 
nothing else.

 The rest of it works OK, but there's obviouly something wrong, any 
idea?

 thanks in advance!
