Re: hoster setup

Thanks for the infro, But the problem is fixed. I wasn't using a "A" drive to make the back up. I had to go out and buy a external floppy drive. I'm new to the computer world so I will make alot of dum mistakes.

Re: hoster setup

If you were connected to the internet, you shouldn't have had to make a floppy.

Floppy install is for a pc that's not on the internet, but it takes a pc that is on the internet to complete the registration.

You create the floppy on the pc that is not on the internet that you want to install the product on.

You then use that floppy on a pc that is on the internet to connect to MTU, and MTU installs the registration code on the floppy.

You then put the floppy back in the pc you want to install on, and the floppy allows installation to be completed.

That's why Beavis asked you if you were on the internet. If so, you should not have had to buy an external floppy drive.
