Well, all you need to do to get files to appear in the window is: copy the SBI files that you download from Sbiffy!com into the c:\Sbinducr\SBI\ directory. Any SBI files inside that directory will appear in the window.

However - I don't think SBInducer will recognize the files if they have a zip extension (which is something that Win XP adds a lot of times when you download SBI files), so, if you already have SBI files in your SBI directory, and they are still not showing up, then I would suggest checking to make sure WinXP didn't automatically add the ZIP extension to the end of them.

ok...super stupid question...i think i've done everything right but i don't know...so where's the directory...is it where the registry is??

[curt_grymala]

Yes, the SBI directory is the directory where you found "SBI.reg".

[Super_Sonic]

so everything i put in that folder should be appearing in the little box to the right??

[curt_grymala]

Everything that has an SBI extension should appear in the box to your right. However, as I mentioned before, files with a ZIP extension will not. Also, SBT files will not show up there.

ok cool...so what sites can i get sbi files??or make the ones i have read as sbi's??

[curt_grymala]

You should get all of your SBI files from http://www.sbiffy.com/

ok...now what about the themes that are sbt files.....how can i get them to work for me??

[curt_grymala]

You can only have one theme per disc.

All you need to do is put one SBT file in your SBI directory, and Selfboot Inducer will know what to do with it. The SBT file will not show up in the file list on your right.
