File Problems
I was creating rescue discs using Nortons, when I error
message stated the there were 2 files problems. One, was keyb.com was not found. Is it an important file and do you know why the file does not exist? The second file was display.sys was not found in c:\windows\command although in was in c:\windows. I managed to work around this except for the keyb.com file.

Doesn't really matter, Noel. It's just 'no keyb.com' and 'display.sys not
being in %windir%'. Probably due to ME being installed without making the EBD, or something. Probably can't get the tilde, either! Anyway, supply the files and it'll work. Display.sys - WIN_19.CAB. Keyb.ebd - WIN_16.CAB. Excuse my not answering the OP, but that's me and my plonk list! Funny thing is I don't have aol blocked anymore! Shane "Noel Paton" wrote in message ...

Well, I've not seen it there in that guise (doesn't prove anything). And
what I'm thinking - and this may be a misapprehension that I repeat ad nauseum - is that when you don't set up for a non-US locale, you don't get keyb.com. And/or it's a file that's extracted for the EBD process then deleted according to this section of subase.inf: [cmd.del.file] bootdisk.bat keyb.com display.sys nlsfunc.exe It strikes me that you (and I) were experimenting a few months back with the temporary folders created during setup (C:\Wininst0.400\EBD iirc) and if you viewed those files you may have seen keyb.ebd there (if the above is correct as opposed to raving).

That's right. But rename keyb.ebd to keyb.com - which is what Windows does
when it extracts it from the cab. If you do already have keyb.com in c:\windows\command, try copying it to c:\windows. If it still doesn't work, that's Rescue Disk! Out of interest, what year Rescue Disk? It's a long time since I heard of that error. That wouldn't be a 2000 version? Shane "Julia" wrote in message ...
