When i exit 3.11 to DOS 6.22 (i think) and i type Setup the Windows 3.11 install page comes up. I don't have my 3.11 floppys anymore so do i need them to install 3.11. The folder on the C: drive has these folders if it helps.

Sorry, I don't understand. 3.11 works now? If so, why do you type setup after you exit windows? Do you want to change something?

BTW, if you want to chech the dos version you have installed, type ver [Enter] at a dos prompt.

What you are getting is the DOS Setup page to change settings such a Display or Mouse type. It is not the Windows Setup (Install) you use from the floopy disk set to install Windows, for that you will need the full disk set. If Windows is running OK why do you want to install again anyway?
