Boot Disk

[Niall]

Does anyone have a boot disk for Windows Millenium
Edition? I need one as my system.imi file has gone
missing and I can't start my computer.
Anyhelp would be much appreciated.
If you have a copy you can mail it to ***@dol.ie

On a PC running Win Me:
You can create a boot floppy (EBD) or start up disk as follows:
Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Startup Disk and follow the prompts. If
you get asked for the location of a "missing" file point the wizard towards
your Win Me cab files which should be in either the windows\options\cabs or
windows\options\install folder. Alternatively point to the Win9x folder on
the Win Me CD. Specifically look for BASE2.CAB.

On any PC:
You can download the image of a Win ME OEM boot disk from www.bootdisk.com.
Download to your desktop, double click to run and follow the prompts to
transfer the image to a floppy.

PS I would have sent you a floppy disk but didn't think you would know how to
remove it from this message. <g>
