Cannot find cdrom on PC

Comment:
I formatted my Hard Drive and was trying to load Windows 98 on a PC and I get the following message when it looks for the CDROM.
This driver is provided by Oak Technology, Inc.. OTI-91X ATAPI CD-ROM device driver, Rev D91xV352
(C)Copyright Oak Technology Inc. 1987-1997
Device Name :MSCD001 No drivers found, aborting installation.
I am new at this. Can I get some step by step instructions for loading the correct driver? I am using a 98 boot disk from bootdisk.com.

You have the correct driver, it is a hardware issue, is the Optical drive recognised in the BIOS ???
I am presuming you are using the W98SE OEM Boot Disk !!!

I think it shows up. Where in the BIOS can I see if I see the Drive?
Yes, I am using the Windows 98 OEM Boot disk, not Windows 98SE.
The BIOS was password protected and nobody knew the password, so I took out the battery for a couple of minutes to remove the password. Do I need to update the BIOS?
