Is it a 64MB card? If so, use 'disk0' in place of 'slot0'.

I tried your suggestion but when I boot from my slot0:IOS_IMAGE I have a bad file magic number error. Do I missing anything in the Rommon configuration?

Copy the image to the card, and try to boot it from ROMMON. Once running, you'll need to format the card in IOS (so the MONLIB (kind of like a boot sector) is put on there). Then you can use Windows to copy the file again to the card (but don't format it again, obviously). Then I think it should auto-boot. If it's less than 64MB, I don't think Windows can recognize it as a disk drive without special drivers, which may or may not exist. Make sure your ROMMON version is 7.1(1) if it is a 64MB card, can't recognize it without.
