I'm running Windows ME and when I go to format my floppy and make a bootable disk, there is no option for "copy system files only". Not sure what to do now except ask if any body knows how I can create a bootable floppy. Is a bootable floppy the same as a start up disk?

I think it is the same.

In case you don't know, go to Start+settings+Control Panel+Add&Remove Programs+Start-UP disc.

I really wish someone would tell ME if there is any use in life for a start up disc OTHER than doing a full install..

Almost everyone here knows ole Itchy-Bod Cranium is very limited in Pewter knowledge, so few will laugh, out loud anyway http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Thanks again for the help. The files came and I was ready to update my bios until I hit this snag. I know one day I will figure all this out. NOT!
