I would guess that the .dsk files would be the ones which contain most of the data (probably was originally one .dsk file per floppy disc?) and there should be a setup program which would extract them and install the program? If not, maybe the program needs to run under an Emulator which would read the .dsk files and treat them as though they're the original discs. Is it a PC (DOS/Win) program, or something from an older type of system?
What's the name of the program? According to http://filext.com/d.htm: .DSK Borland C++ or Turbo Pascal Project Desktop File Novell Driver File Lotus Notes Design Elements SHARP MZ-series Emulator File WinImage Disk Image File (http://www.winimage.com/) Possibly helpful links (good ole Google!): http://www.computing.net/windows31/wwwboard/forum/8744.html http://www.ipblythe.com/fug10.htm#faq5 HTH!
