Nope nothing works.
EDIT: It's not in windows I need it to run the windows 2000 setup I put on the hard disk and there's no drivers in it that support my CD drive.

I know I've been stuck here for hours typing in countless commands, either no directory, invalid command or it thinks I'm going to write a file to A:\!
-= Double Post =-
It loads the boot disk (and I've tried using DOS 6.22 disk 1 and entering command from there) and brings up the commands under A:\>, nothing works.
-= Double Post =-
Windows 2000 setup disks don't work either!!! 0 value error at end of disk preparations!

I don't have an OS on the hard drive just some 2000 setup disks and the setup CD and DOS 6.22 disks. I also put the setup CD on the hard disk so I could run it from there but I can't switch to C:\ D:\ or E:\ and most commands don't work. And yes I ran command.com.
