By the way, if you don't know how to change BIOS settings, you 'probably'
don't know how to create a Windows bootable floppy disk either!! Make
absolutely sure you get that right or you'll get an error message upon
attempting to boot to floppy...If so, come back and I'll tell you how !!
You CAN NOT simply copy files to the floppy !! You must do this in the
proper way or you will fail !! It must contain the Windows system files
necessary to boot your system !!! Be careful !!
