doesnt seem to work....

do i just copy that file straight to a disk ??

or do i double click it and then wen it tells me to put a disk in i do ??

when you download it, click it, it will ask you to insert a formatted blak floppy and it will write to it. Reboot and boot from the floppy and use fdisk first to delete and make a new partition and then format c: yes

Reboot and insert the cd

i get this error wen i double click it...

Error

Floppy cant be acceded.

Your pc is all screwed up. humm.....Reboot and then try. Is your Hard drive the c: drive or is it different? Is it set as slave? Do you have it on the same IDE as your Cd drive?

i just tried rebooting and it still doesnt work...

and yes it is C:

it comes up with that error when i just double click it....i cant get it onto the floppy

try another floppy and see if you can access it
