1---Several images on my computer were/are saved as .art files. I can no longer open them. Photoshop, Irfanview, Picasa, and a couple of other graphic oriented programs will not open them. I tried WP, Open Office, Word, Works...nothing. Someone suggested that a recent windows security upgrade 'killed' .art files. Can anyone offer suggestions as to how I might open those files? --2 Because of the above problem and a couple of others, I would like to install Windows 98 on a computer that is not online. I have an original install disk. Memory has completely failed me on this one....do I need a boot disk to install it? If so, how do I get or make one? Thanks for leading me by the hand, again, and again. annie
