Default Fresh Boot

I was wondering if it was possible to legaly obtane the setup floppy(s) that
come with Windows ME. im trying to format the hard disk then install a clean
copy of ME. i cant get into the bios to set it up to boot from cd so i
thought it would be just as easy to start setup from a floppy.

Thx
Chuck

You can get a boot floppy image file from www.bootdisk.com

Good luck

I cruise by these groups regularly. But you, Mike, and the other
regulars always have everything answered by the time I get here.
