Try moving the guest.exe line in your autoexec right to the end
of the file (after any mscdex etc. line).

On a separate tack, what do you (or anyone else for that matter)
think of the Iomega drive?  I saw one for the first time a few days
back and was very impressed at its (apparent) flexibility as a
backup device for my PCs (I can live with a 100Mb backup disk).
However, the views of salesmen and users sometimes differ :-)

I'd be grateful to hear from someone in the know that Iomega is not
likely to disappear and that supplies of the disks will not dry up
a few months down the road...
