I am at the prompt in command mode and I need information on how to get me set up with a floppy disc Presumably the prompt that you are seeing is A:\ ive tryed all sorts of things and its not reading drive E Did you type :- E: at the A:\ prompt - and then press return? You should then see the prompt change to E:\ what do I do I am stuck in command prompt trying to set up with a floppy disk Exactly what error message do you see? If the prompt does change to E:\ then type "setup" (no quotes) and press Enter. What (if any) error message do you see? I guess that you are trying to read a CD-ROM. Are you absolutely sure that the CD-ROM is the E: drive? It may have become the F: drive (due to RAMDRIVE temporality moving the letters on by one increment) whilst booting from the WinMe (startup) floppy disk. But the screen messages will confirm the correct letter during the booting sequence from the WinMe floppy disk. Mart |
