Ahh yea I would say so, that should have worked. I even tested it on XP and it works fine. I used to use 98 SE for years. You’re sure you typed in

edit C:\Windows\win.ini

Well if that don't work I'd try navigating your computer in DOS and copying what ever you want saved to a floppy disk. But it can only be small files, music and such is too big.

Here is some DOS commands used for navigation and file copying.

dir - Displays all folders in your computer

cd - (Change directory) Changes the folder to a specified folder. Example: cd C:\Windows\Desktop  that will open the folder Desktop in the folder Windows.

copy - copies a file to a specific source. Example: copy C:\Windows\My Documents\MyFile.doc A:\     this will copy MyFile.doc to the A:\ drive (floppy drive)

This info you should be able to navigate your computer in dos and copy and save the information you want on floppy disk providing the files are not any bigger than 1.44 mb.
