Reply: (edit)Get a boot floppy with CD support (if you made one in Windows Add-Remove Programs that will do nicely). You need to change to your CD drive which will probably become E for a while. Type cd e: This should put you to the root of E.
Pop in your W98 CD and type setup.exe Hopefully away you should go. Happy Christmas.
