Have you ever heard of experimentation? If at first you don't succeed, try another address. THINK!

Win98 boot disk will set up a RAM drive on the letter following the last hard drive letter. Your CDROM will be the next letter after that. For instance, if you have one drive, it is C. RAM drive will be D, CDROM drive will be E. This is all explained in the help file on the win98 boot disk.
