As far as I know that functionality was removed from winME.  You can
create a "startup disk" through control panel->add/remove programs, and
then delete the majority of the stuff on that disk.  I never found
another way under ME.  You can create a basic DOS boot disk under WinXP
the same way you've always been able to under 95/98.

Hi All,
    I know this is probably a pretty stupid question for this highly
technical oriented group of folks, but the most stupid questions are the
ones that go un-asked.  Soooo-how do I create a "system Disk" on a 3.5"
floppy in Win ME?  When you do a "Full" format request, " the create
system disk" option is not offered as I've seen in Win 98.

Thanks,
Neil Rogers
