DLL file missing-how do I install it?

My screen says I am missing mfc42.dll file. A friend put
it on a floppy disk. How do I install it into the
computer? My computer is really acting badly. Thanks.

Boot with a floppy start up disk--CDRom support is not required. If you do
not have a start up disk, make one with the Fat32ebd.exe file located on the
W98 CD: tools/mtsutil/fat32ebd.
At the A: prompt, put in the floppy containing the file you extracted.
Assuming you are replacing a .dll file named xyz, type: Copy A:\xyz.dll
C:\windows\system\xyz.dll and hit enter. Once the file is copied,
remove the floppy disk and reboot. While .dll files are filed in the system
folder, other files may be filed elsewhere so make sure you specify the
right folder.

Thank you. I dropped the missing file into the correct
folder and it's restored.
