Okay, it looks like Microsoft has decided to make it very hard to make a boot disk under WinME.  They have removed the SYS switch from the FORMAT command, and the SYS command can only work your " C " drive.  The SYS switch or command transfers the files needed to a floppy disk or hard drive to make them boot-able.  It looks like the only way to do so is to use WinME's " Startup Disk " creation tool.  To use it do the following:

Your new startup disk will provide CD-ROM support for most CD-ROMs, but you will only have around 450K of free space left.  After you've made your startup disk you can then remove all of the files on it except the following:

This will give you a bare-bones bootdisk.   See here for adding other files that you may want to have on your Bootdisk. As always, it's also a good idea to have a Startup Disk in addition to your system Bootdisk.  :::smiles:::
