** At what command prompt? Where do I find the "command prompt?" It know
it's not Start/Run because I tried that and it said "Windows can't find
dir".

To get to the command prompt goto start>run then type "cmd" without the
quotes or "command" without quotes then follow the instructsions given by
Courtney.
To get to the directory where the midi files are type "cd\folder name" from
the command prompt or to go back a folder type "cd\"
