BTW, the delay time listed in the boot.ini file is not invoked unless you have multiple boot selections. If you have a single OS and no Recovery...
The REM command may be causing your problem since it isn't for .ini files. The preferred Remark command in this case is the semicolon. (;)...
If that doesn't give you any relief, edit your set commands so that you enclose any path that has an embedded space with quotes. Then eliminate...

captjlddavis, also be aware that some of the commands from Win9x batch files will not work in XP. For a complete rundown on the available XP...

I confess, I was somewhat misdirecting my advice it seems. I had no idea you were using separate download software and also did not understand...
