    Hello, I've got W2K ( only ) and I want to update the bios of my mainboard. In order to do that, I need to make a boot disk. I know that we cannot do that on W2K ( format a: /s ). So I take an old W98 boot disk, and tried the "format a: /s" but it doesn't work ( no idea why. I could do a "format c: /s" but not on a floppy disk). Any idea or help to make a bootable floppy disk on W2K ? Thanks in advance, Stephane "It is ridiculous to claim that video games influence children. For instance, if PacMan affected kids born in the eighties, we should by now have a bunch of teenagers who run around in darkened rooms eating pills while listening to monotonous electronic music."
