It's on the bootdisk and the WinME CD
Almost afraid to ask what happened to the old one

Yup! Better don't ask :) Heh if I had a Window$ Me CD I wouldn't ask for io.sys :) Oh and by the way... I'm now on linux, so I can't open an .exe file, so I need io.sys ONLY :(

Well, now he has a bunch of the things. There was a 2nd separate posting (removed, naturally) explaining that he'd tried copying it over from somewhere else without much success.
I sent him a copy as well.
Kind of giving up - seems like he needs to perform a sys c: from a proper bootdisk to resolve this mysterious issue

So I've done it. only copied a io.sys from C: not from bootdisk or else! Thanx very much for help... but it was useless help. I needed io.sys, and You gave me advices... for what? I knew what to do. And on other forum one GIRL sent me io.sys! only she was so clever not to give advices, but what I want. happy? There was NO need to make "sys c:" or any s***t like that.
Proffesionals... Heh...

It's hard to know just what to make of this one. The poster was claiming that they needed WinME IO.SYS, but from the hard drive, *not* the boot floppy (heh - that's a good one) all the while running from Linux.
Obviously a language barrier - God knows what other impediments (although I might hazard a guess or two)
Come back when you can't stay so long maybe?

Slackwit... heh
