Well, I've been struggeling for two nights with this file problem. I haven't read
every single post in this long thread, so I'm sorry if someone has already written
this.
The problem about files that cannot be found is not only due to burning problems.
Many of you work from an .iso file and you either burn it or extract it to a hdd
using isobuster (I think the same applies with a .bin file). I recommend extracting
it by means of isobuster and then burn the files.
Here's the IMPORTANT thing: When opening the .iso in isobuster there are two possible
images of the content of the .iso file. The first is next to a red 'iso'-sign and
the other is a blue box with arrows.
You need to extract the image from the BLUE box. In that image the file names are
correct. Once extracted I recommend installing windows from that location or copy
the files to another harddrive (if you are to install on another computer). If you
need to burn the extracted files, follow the instruction in the above posts (although
I haven't tried it and cannot confirm if it works).
Boot up with a win98 bootdisk or similar, and start up \I386\winnt.exe
Hope this helps, good luck.
