After I the download onto 6 disks I followed the set up
and installed disk one and so on until I got a corrupt
file message that asked me to hit any key. I tried to do
it all over agin and when i put in disk 1, I get a new
message that says::

BOOT: I/0 error reading disk
Please insert another disk

I tried all of the disks and nothing happens.

This is killing me, why is this so hard?

Thanks for your help.

Also, did you use good-quality, new-or-nearly-new floppies? Or were they a
couple of years old, formatted many times, and sitting in the dust..
