You were right andyms18a,Confused-floppy

Thanks RJ !
Thanks Confused !
Thanks andyms18a !

I NOW have ALL 6 floppy disks loaded, thank you very much..You were right andyms18a , and confused was right behind you I took your advise. That is what I did andyms18a. I went to the MicroSofts download page and I clicked 'download '. The square box popped up and I clicked 'save '. Then the larger box popped up and I clicked on the drop down choices and I scrolled that list and clicked my E: drive. I then went down and clicked the square button ' Save '. Well , the download started. I then did other stuff on the computer as the download worked in the background ( it had a Task Bar slot). After a little time went by , the little box popped up and asked me If I wanted to go to the finished download. O coarse I said yes. It showed a page with all my multi-files that I have on the E: drive. With my eyes , I scanned the files and I did find that file. I left clicked on that file and a sort'a -DOS black command prompt box came up ( about 4X by 6). It told me to put in a floppy disk and then hit 'any key '. I did just that. I watched as the first disk filled up. When it was full , I was told to put in a second disk and press 'any key '. It did all of this till the 6 Th. (last one) disk was filled. At that time the command black box disappeared indicating I was through with the whole process and that a successful download had taken placed.------ I was Home !.-------------------Thanks Again Guys to All of You.-------------Don
