You need to use the command

E:\Setup.exe

That should do it.

Ok i have tried about 4 times to install windows ME on a system that i
will be using to run a Vent server, the system specs are, Hard Drive-8
gigs, processor- pentium-1 266mhz, 164mbs or ram, NIC Card. i am using
an iso image for the cd, and a regular floppy for the floppy boot.
basically i can get up to the point where ive reformatted c: drive and
repartitioned.

now when i press e: it accesses it but when i try and run setup.exe or
\setup.exe, it says bad command line or file name. i am assuming that
this means its a problem with the cd drive.

plz help...
