Remember folks you can burn a CD-R or CD-RW with the file(s) you want transferred under you DOS program of choice. You can then boot from a DOS disk with CD drivers. You need MSCDEX.EXE in the autoexec.bat and cdrom.sys (or similar like oakcdrom.sys) in the config.sys file. These files have to be on the floppy (obviously!). The Microsoft supplied WIN98 boot disk can work well when you choose the "with CD-ROM" selection. Sample AUTOEXEC.BAT: MSCDEX.EXE /D:MSCD000 /L:D @ECHO OFF PROMPT $p$g path a:\ SET TEMP=C:\temp mode con codepage prepare=((850) ega.cpi) mode con codepage select=850 keyb uk,,keyboard.sys Sample CONFIG.SYS: BUFFERS=30,0 FILES=250 FCBS=16,0 DEVICE=OAKCDROM.SYS /D:MSCD000 DEVICE=SETVER.EXE DEVICE=DISPLAY.SYS CON=(EGA,,1) Country=044,850,country.sys You can find the driver files on the web, if not, let me know and I'll post them to the files section. When booted, you can get the files off the CD drive to use. The hard drive with its NTFS won't be troubled. Cheers Chris
