time, but now I think I could use it for the following problem: I wish to
prevent people from booting using drive A: on my PC. What I will
do is to set the switches for 2 drives, and connect the only diskette drive
to the B: port. This will force all cold boots to go thru C:.
I need the option to boot myself from the drive without opening the box
so I think of installing a password protected program on C, that will
allow boots from B. Any help will be appreciated.
