Okay remember the below.

After your format gets to 100% and stops you will then press enter.
 
Now, Believe it or not you will then reboot your computer choose
Cdrom support again and this time when you get to the A:\ prompt
 
Type E:  
Press Enter
 
Then Type-->          SETUP       and press Enter

When you type E:  and the directory changes to E:\

type         dir           to see what's on the CD.

E:\> when you got to this point are you sure you typed setup?

Our forum changes words to thingy and makes them funnier.

Put the CD that says second edition in and reboot and get back to the A:\ prompt and type   E:   press enter then type   setup   and press enter


Sorry,I know this is frustrating but, we'll get there.
