i had to reinstall vpc 5 on my ibook, and in doing so, i seem to have
an extra windows98se boot disk on my ibook desktop. when i drag it to
the trash to get rid of it, i says i can't delete it because it is
locked.

any suggestions?

thanks,

al

Restart your Mac OS, then trash it.

In case this happens to anyone else, I solved the problem by using mac
help. I removed the unwanted, locked file by clicking on it, going to
file, clicking get info, unclicking locked, and then trashing it.
Thanks to the Paul that replied to my original message, but that didn't
work until I found the answer in mac help.
