I have an IBM PS/2 55sx and these last two weeks it has been
acting very strangely.  Today was the second time that my computer booted
up and displayed the message "Bad or missing Command Interpreter".
After booting from a DOS disk, I findthat all of the files in my
home directory are gone....no config.sys, no autoexec.bat.....zippo!
Is the command.com screwy?  This gets really ANNOYING!

I have NORTON 6.0 and Norton Anti-Virus....I had been playnig around
with the Anti-0virus setting just prior to this occurance...even
in comprehensive scan mode, it dosn't detect a thing!


	You suggestions/experiences/advice is always appreciated!

				Thanks
				PEte
