I've found Romeo29's link, he was talking about Win95 but the process is the same Then goto your floppy A: and enter depending on how many files you have on the floppy Copy Rundll32.exe C:\Windows\ and enter. Start your computer up and keep the Ctrl key press until you see the DOS menu and select Command Prompt Only. Now I know WinZip will extract the file so if you have a friend with a computer then extract it to a floppy disk.

I think thats a Windows extractor anyway so it won't work in DOS. It showed up the extractor but nothing happened.

There is a Extrac32.exe in the Windows folder and I tried to use that to extract. You get the message back do you want to overwrite this file and I enter y but it returnsĮRROR: Unknown compression type in cabinet file Win98_46.cab I've just tried it and it doesn't appear to work.Įxtract d:\Win98\Win98_46.cab Rundll32.exe c:\windows\Rundll32.exe Anyway he was saying you can extract files from a cab file in the Win98SE CD using the Extract.exe. Well I read a post the other day from Romeo29 in this forum but I can't find it now. Went to add/remove programs & it now cannot find file rundll32.exe. However, looking thru this site, I managed to restore to a backed up registry & I now have a mouse & can do some more trouble shooting. Managed to sort that & hey presto it booted, but no mouse! As I am a dumbo novice it had taken me weeks to get this far. Managed to extract & restore 3 missing files. I was trying to clean up etc to perhaps hand over to a friend.
