Re: I386 folder location pls ?



How many places did you Multipost this to?

Which i386 folder?

C:\I386
C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\i386
C:\WINDOWS\inf\i386

From the root folder of the system partition of your hard disk drive (for
example, C:\ ), copy the following files to the floppy disk:
Boot.ini
NTLDR
Ntdetect.com
