The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

My advice is to make a boot disk and boot into dos.  go to add/remove 
prgorams in your control panel.  And go to the tab for start-up disk.  I 
think I'd also find a better anti-virus program.  I user norton, personally, 
haven't had any problems with it.  Another good option is McAfee's.
