You will hv to Edit two files to Change the SETUP WILL COMPLETE

Expand -R syssetup.dl_

(Follow the pretty Pictures) I suggest using ResBuild cuz its Free & pretty! {Credit goes to Zbeta for finding this prog}

This seems to be a very informative. Unfortunately, I am unable to view all but one image and none of the download links are working. I get page unavailable message. I am using a high speed internet connection, but the images still dont load .

Could anyone suggest how I can view and download those files. I am really eager to try out this. Is there a mirror of this site and the files?

Thanks,
BW
