Hello,

I was trying to install/dual boot windows 3.1 onto my pc with me on it and whenever I booted to A drive and put the first floppy in, I get this error saying "Remove disks or any other media. Press any key to restart". And when I do hit any key it shows the same message without rebooting!

Could somebody please help? If it makes any difference I downloaded the 3.1 files from a torrent website.


Cheers

It may make a difference, when you have downloaded the 3.1 files from a torrent website.

1. You'll never know, whether the files are virus free.
2. The floppy disks, you created from the downloaded files, are obviously not bootable, but the first floppy disk has to.
3. It's illegal.

Please send a reply, if you solved the problem !!!
