You can access all of your files in DOS mode, by booting the computer using a bootable
floppy disk for Windows ME, downloadable from www.bootdisk.com.
The DOS command DIR will display a directory listing for the current folder. You
can use the DOS command COPY to copy your files to another disk (e.g. to a floppy
disk in A:).
The following command will do your copying. Let's assume your photos are in "C:\My
Documents\Photos" and are all .JPG files, and you want to copy them to a hard disk
at D: -
COPY C:\MYDOCU~1\*.JPG D: /V
Adjust the source if the files are elsewhere than in "C:\My Documents". If you wish
to copy them to a floppy disk in drive A: then replace the destintion thus -
COPY C:\MYDOCU~1\*.JPG A: /V
If you have more files than there is space for on a floppy, you should be prompted
by the program to put a new floppy disk in A: when each one is full.
