smartdrv copied to root (C

What happens;

I can load DOS 7.1 perfectly fine; keyboard on laptop works perfect.

After typing smartdrv, I type winnit.

As soon as Windows installer loads and asks to, select path where windows files are or press Enter.

From this point on I cannot do anything to progress further.

However, if I press the FN key, it lights up! But the keys do not work

INCENTIVE: If someone can find a solution I will pay $25 via PayPal or Moneybookers!

Please do not offer inducements to get help on these forums. I give my time freely, as do most of the other helpers on this forum...
