Guys, one more question:
I'm trying to create startup disk, while warning message comes up and says that can not find files like aspi2dos.sys and etc. Even I put Me installation on CD-rom - anyway it says that can not find such files.
Any ideas so far???

Cheers

let me try that again....

i don't know why your files are missing but if you need a boot disk you can go to bootdisk.com and make one there.

you could also try copying the .cab files to the c:\windows\options\install folder again. just copy over everything that's in the win9x folder on the cd.

when ME makes a boot disk it looks at this folder for the files it needs. it sounds like you're missing a few things.
