I know there have got to be a few of you who know how to do this. after downloading some obsolete software from winworld, (geoworks ensemble.... old school), I now have all of these .img "disk image" files in a WinRAR archive. how am I supposed to install the operating system that I downloaded using these 10 .img files??? I'm lost.

So these will probably be floppy disk images at a guess... programs such as RaWrite an WinImage can apparently read them. Img is one of those filenames thats not really a standard so its hard to say what made them from that alone. Assumimg thats what they are youd either use a program to put each image on a set of floppy disks and use them as if they were legit or if you dont have a floppy drive a virtual floppy drive emulator program that can read them maybe? Hope that helps a bit.
