It sounds like you are trying to start Windows after booting from a floppy. If
this is what you are trying to do, I'd like to tell you to give up now.
Windows isn't designed to run after being booted into DOS from a floppy. To
run Windows you need to boot locally (off of the C: drive).
Hope that this helps.....,
