Making a Startup Disk

A startup disk is a floppy diskette that contains the system files required
to start up the system. It starts up the system without using the hard
disk, so it comes in handy when you need to perform troubleshooting
steps.

Important

The optional floppy disk drive is required to make a startup disk.

1. On the Windows Taskbar, click Start, point to Settings, and the click

Control Panel.

2. Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon.
3. In the Add/Remove Programs properties dialog, click the Startup

Disk tab.

4. Insert a new 2HD (1.44Mbytes) into the floppy disk drive.
5. Click the Create Disk button to start creation of a startup disk.

6. Specify where the startup disk files are located.

• Specify the location of the Cabs folder if you have copied the

Cabs files to your hard disk (

page 138

). The path should be:

C:Windows\Options\Cabs.

• If you have not copied the Cabs files to your hard disk, you will

need to connect the CD-ROM drive and insert the “Microsoft
Windows Me Operating System CD-ROM” into the drive.

7. When the Insert Disk dialog appears, check to confirm that the floppy

disk is inserted in the drive. Next, click OK to create the startup disk.
