Then it's just "explorer". Go to "My Computer", and double click on your MP3 player, then go into the .rockbox folder, and there make the Doom folder.

Connect the iPod via USB, navigate to the .rockbox folder, and click "Make a new folder."

I tried that but a little bubble comes under and says i cant use any slashes

[Llorean]

".rockbox/doom" means "in the .rockbox folder, make a folder named 'doom'". You don't need to use any slashes.

What is the Ipod via USB

1) Use the modify button, do not post twice if nobody has responded.
2) Read the manual. It should tell you what is needed. Otherwise see the PluginDoom wiki page.

The procedure, summarized:

1) Close iTunes.
2) Plug in your iPod like you normally do (boot into the iPod firmware, not Rockbox, before plugging it in).
3) Open "My Computer" and double click on a drive labeled either "Removable Disk" or "iPod".
4) Double click on the .rockbox folder.
5) Right click on a blank space in the window and select "New", then "Folder". Type "doom" and press Enter.
6) Find the .wad file. Right-click on it and click on "Copy" or "Cut".
7) Go back to the ".rockbox" folder. Right click on the "doom" folder and click "Paste".
Wait a few seconds (better yet, a full minute) before unplugging the player.

Wait a few seconds (better yet, a full minute) before unplugging the player.

Or even better, use the "safely remove hardware" function before unplugging the player.

Uh... an alternate 8th step, with added no-data-corruption goodness:

Left-click on the "safely remove hardware" icon, and select your iPod's device. When the "it is now safe to ..." message pops up, you can then unplug the iPod. If you recieve a message saying something like "the device cannot be removed because it is in use", close all programs that might be using the iPod (iTunes, Windows Explorer, etc.), and try again.  If it keeps giving you this message, do Start->Run->"taskmgr"->"processer"->select "explorer"->"End Process"->File->New Task->"explorer", and try again.

hmm..

EDIT: bloody scorche.... made me realise I keep oversimplifying... do you see what you caused??

[Strife89]

I was trying to be simple with that last step.
