As I recall, the file sys7013o.exe is a self expanding file. You need
to unarchive its contents to the floppy disk first. I think you just
need to doublr click the file to do this. Then you can follow the
instructions for upgrading. I believe they are at the same place you
got the sys7013O.exe file.
