I know this isn't the right place for this but is was the
closest i could get. Basicall I want to create a disk
that will load my computer with cd-rom, mouse, keyboard
etc suport and also have somthing called EMS memory which
a game I'm trying to run needs. I know this is old stuff
but I would like to try and crack it. Anyway if someone
could just tell me where i can get a simple image to
download that would be great thanks.

Sorry, I clicked too quickly. After you've downloaded whatever you think is
a suitable boot diskette for your system, you'll have to look at
'autoexec.bat' and 'config.sys' on it, and make sure they load the stuff
you need.

You will have trouble reading anything off your C drive unless it is a FAT16
formatted drive - very rare any more. You might try building and old PC.
486, or low end Pentium processor, FAT 16 hard drive (<500Mb). 8-32Mb Ram
will be more than enough for a game calling for EMS. Lemmings 2 possibly?
