Module 1 was originally distributed on five diskettes. The files of all five diskettes have been compressed and archived into a "zip" file called module01.zip which can be downloaded to your computer using a browser or via anonymous ftp, and unzipped using pkunzip or WinZip software or directly extracted using Windows Explorer in recent versions of Windows.

Firstly, we suggest that you create a folder called "DOS Bilko" on your hard disk and download the module01.zip file to the this folder and unzip it there.

The files are archived in a series of folders with all the image and other files required for each lesson in folders Lesson01 to Lesson08. The files for the Introduction are in the folder of that name and a pdf version of the Module 1 manual is included in the Documentation folder.
