Scott, A DOS filesystem is FAT. One and the same. If you have downloaded the patch via Windows and copied it successfully to the floppy, that's all there is to it. The only reasons I can think of for it not working are: - faulty floppy disk - bad download Try with another floppy or download it again. HTH Brian
