Two tries so far to solve my problem. Yes, I have the Windows directory on my
PATH and I have a file called WIN.COM in the directory (someone else working
for HP thought that was what Newwave wants). My Windows is not a runtime
version (are there any runtime Win 3.0 versions?).

Well, why does the NewWave install program claim that it cannot find Windows
on my hard disks then?
