Hi,
you will have to "save" to your hard disk after specifying a folder and giving a name to the file OR you can choose " RUN" and in this case windows will download to temporary folder, ask you if you want to run the program. if you say yes you will get a MS DOS WINDOW stating " this prog. creates the set up disks........ to create these disks you need to provide six blank......pl. specify the floppy drive to copy the images to..(here you will get the blinking cursor).
at this MS DOS prompt type A:\ which is normally the floppy drive letter and extraction will start and, at the end of the capacity of the first drive, it will ask you to insert the second floppy and so on till all the files are extracted to the sixth floppy.
after extraction you can delete the program from the temp. folder to release space. make sure you have six formatted floppies ready on hand.
HTH and good luck----Venkat
