Hey Lowell,

thanx for your quick answer.

I mean by "it didn't work" that no matter which disk I
put in it kept on saying that I did not insert the
correct disk.

I copied de the entire bin directoy from the cdrom
into floppies, it made up about 15 floppies, every
floppy had about 4-5 files. I am begining to believe
that I did not copy the right files or using the
incorrect order or something like this, o dunno.

thanx again,

guilherme
