Do you mean DLL files?. Simply copy them to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.

It would seem that you're trying to do this through windows and explorer is set so it doesn't show all files.
Open a MSDOS window. (Have the floppy with the dll file in the A: drive.) Type in;

Then type in;
dir/a/w/o/p
and verify that the file is indeed on the floppy. If you find it type in;
copy/v ws2_32.dll c:\windows\system

ws2_32.dll should not be a hidden file.
Re dieymir's post. Note that not "all" .dll's go into c:\windows\system (but this one does and many others).

If he has "Do not show hidden or system files" checked off in folder options/view this file won't be displayed.
