Thanks Mike, looking at the disk further, it is just a standard boot floppy.
It looks like I don't have a recovery disk.

How would I check the system for a hidden partition containing an image of
the system as delivered?

Cheers,

Craig.

Craig,

No. That is a boot floppy. The recovery disk will be a CD, perhaps more
than one depending on how much junk Time included with the system. I seem
to recall though that Time charged customers extra for a recovery CD so
you may be SOL. Check that the system doesn't have a hidden partition
containing an image of the system as delivered, in such cases then a
floppy disk such as you have found may well be all that is required to
install that image but the five files you mention as being on the disk are
amongst those that would be on a plain vanilla boot floppy.
