The default fresh install of DW4 Server only has one instance so you wont
get a list in this case.  If you use the Instance Manager you should only
see on instance in the display box.

Also you may wish to make sure you are running the most current version of
DW4 as well since there have been many updates over the last few weeks.

This disk image is to be used on drive 0 of DW4 server.  Do not use this in
the virtual floppy disk drive on VCC itself as it wont work.  Reason for
this is the disk image when you do a DOS will then attempt to connect to
the DW Server to finish booting.
