Jotnar Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Extract all the files from the floppies and put them into a single folder on the cd. WFW does not require itself to be installed from floppies so you don't need to have the files in seperate folders.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
<SparTacuS> Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Be careful. You MUST include all the disk ident files or it will not work.They are called DISK1, DISK2 etc up to (I think) DISK8 for WFW.It works very sweet - windows installs in around 15 secs!If you want a more up to date environment you could try installing WFW over DOS 7 instead of 6.22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
