    and when i run it all the menus are good, and everything works, up until i try loading the files, from the D: drive, we used to have the file (when we only have one nic per cd) in the boot sector of the disk, but for the purpose of this. i have to put the files on the cd itself, because there isn't enough space in the boot sector. and i thought it should work because (in the code above) i have it set to load the disk driver first, but then what happens it that it loads the driver of the disk drive, then goes to the menus, and then it will try to load the nic driver from the disk, after it says that there is an error in the code, due to the file not being there, which it is... after all that it gives the copywright information, and then it assigns the disk drive to D:, but i dont have anything about the disk driver after i start trying to load the nic drivers, so this is where im at and asking anyone who knows more about programming than i do. thanks for reading this and i look forward to hearing answers. please and thank you.
