Unable to boot from CD with old PC need 1.44MB size file

[Farkas, Roderic R.]

I will be using Fedora Core 3 at the months end but currently have Core 2 from Thompson Pub. with a Wells text I use. I have dual boot Red Hat 9.0 and Windows 200 Pro. I want instal the publishers copy) before I use it and cannot boot from the 1st CD (in a set of four). I know I'll need a small file maybe a floppy that I can start the install process from. The message I keep getting is the CD is not being found. Does anyone have a file I could use to get booted into Fedora Core 2.
