Well, are you trying to save every single file of an entire computers into floppies?
Yes, it will take decades for that :o
In a hard disk could contain millions of files to fill millions of floppies…

i just want to make rescuedisc really tthats all

Do you mean avast rescue disks?
You can’t… avast does not have this option.
Are you using XP? If so, start avast antivirus and schedule a boot time scanning. It’s the only way.

You can see avast for DOS in the homepage, but you’ll need a CD (burn) and it can’t be placed into a floppy either.
