I downloaded a game, El-fish, from the net, but I had to load them into 5 floppies. No problem, but it's the installing that's giving me a problem. As soon disk one is done it wants the second disk. So I inserted the second disk in, but it keep on insisting that disk one has already been installed, please insert disk two. Hmm, anyone has an idea?

Got an idea. It's crazy but it might work. It has to name the label during the formatting. Wish me luck.

why did you load it on to 5 floppies?

It was required of me to do it.

The download is in 5 parts. Dos based game. Yes it's loaded in the hard drive, but I can not sucessfully get it installed. It wants me to insert disk 2. I know I know, but it's El-fish, one of the best aquarium programs. It's been on when 386 and 486 was the shit.

You then tell it that your floppy drive is actually C:\Elfish

Or whereever you installed it all.

solution - put contents of all disks in a dir on your HDD (so the contents of all the data folders are in the same folder), and install. it shouldn't ask for any other disks.
