Wowee! Sorry you got zapped! Hope you're all good now. I thought the days of getting shocked from unplugged stuff went away with CRT monitors. Thanks for the warning!

My finger ached for a little while after! I certainly take more care when dealing with power supplies and this has been a good lesson since I've never really had a shock before.

The mountains are calling and I must go back home to finish an annoying job

This is fascinating. I never knew there was an era where you needed to enter your hard drive specifications to install an OS. This might be a stupid question, but would using a virtual machine to install this be an option?
Hi koshka, I actually have even less experience with virtual machines, but I'm guessing the same setup paramaters the process is asking for would still pose an issue. However, it would be an ideal option if I didn't have a spare computer to tinker with.
