I can not believe there is no one out there that know which files are the main system or boot files.How about nt4.0 and maybe I can see if they are the same.

From the command prompt type "makeboot"
w/out quotes. That will make boot disks, from there look at the files!

look on the win2k cd for makeboot. Copy it to your hard drive and then run it from the command line.

The makeboot program is on the win2k cd. Have 4 formatted floppies ready. It makes a 4 disk set of system files for booting.

Sorry about the slow response but just got done traveling 2000 miles on vacation.I already had made the disks when installing,that being the 4 disks but thought that maybe there could just be one boot disk like 98.Guess not.Thanks for all responses as always.mike
