Sam,

Take the .exe file and extract it ( you can do this with WinZip or via
command line ). This will give you all of the folders and files that you
need.

I like to create a SYSTEM folder and I typically put the OS I386 folder in
there as well as the Service Pack I386 folder. You might also want to make
sure that you change the appropriate Registry entries ( there are two of
them: one for the OS and one for the Service Pack ) so that it *looks* at
C:\SYSTEM folder instead of d:\ ( assuming that D:\ is your CD-ROM drive
letter ).

HTH,

Cary
