Hi there, 
I need some help for my problem. I have a 286 IBM AT clon
with Dos 3.3. Now I want to install a Dos 4.0 on it. I took the dos 4.0
install diskette to boot the machine, follow the instructions on screen
till the step of "take out the install diskette and put into select copy
diskette". Then it alsways stops with the error msg of "diskette
defective" no matter which blank or formatted 1.44Mb or 730kb 3.5''
diskette I put into the A drive. My A drive doesn't give any other
problem. 
Thanks for your advice in advance!

Matthew
