Please insert the disk labeled: 'Generic FDC Driver Disk' into <CD-ROM drive letter>

When you click OK, you receive the error message again.

RESOLUTION

To work around this behavior, follow these steps:

Copy the files from the Drvlib\Storage\Fenb\Conner folder on the Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM to a floppy disk.

Follow the steps in the Readme.txt file again, but in step 4, select the floppy disk that contains the drivers you copied.
