how old is your computer? and did you try checking the bios/cmos to see if it can boot from usb?

those dos files can be found in iPrep 8.8 i believe. but you can use iPrep 10.7 and just do the flash portion and the drive will open up when you press eject from the connectivity kit if it doesn't open up automatically. you will have to rename the cfw file according to the version you use.

Your main objective is going to be getting something that you can use to boot iprep with. Then getting it finished out with the flash will be secondary.
