Hey All,

I finally managed to crack my problem.  The CD-Rom drive I had been using was not
good... it would drop out.  I tried a different drive tonight and finally was able
to run through the full restore process.  It appears I have a fresh 4i install on my
old 3i !  Thanks all for your helpful comments!!
