Insert your MSDOS 6.22 floppy into your floppy drive.
Download Winimage.
Execute Winimage.
In Winimage there is an option to create an image of your floppy. Do So and save it as msdos622.img
Done.

There are other programs out there to create the image if you search around.

I always do a "format a:" and then a "SYS A:" to make a floppy bootable and then copy the tools that I need to the disk.

or I just use the bootable floppies that came with the OS.

or right-click format in XP and choose "Make bootable".

It sounds to me like you should just download the FreeDOS CD and install that in VPC 2007. Then if your program still needs Himem.sys/EMM386.exe from MSDOS then all you need to do is copy those off of a MSDOS boot disk/OS disks and you'd be good to go.

The above is so simple I'm not even going to bother explaining it so if your not going to bother doing it yourself then you'll just have to wait for a more patient person to come along to explain the details.

Define? You can copy them to the diskette and to the image file if that is what you mean.
