Jun,

The best thing to do is to change the CD-ROM drive letter right after
installing Windows95/98
(system properties/device manager/cdrom/properties/settings).

Put it far enough down the alphabet (mine is Z:) so that no matter what
drives/partitions
you add down the road, the CD-ROM drive letter will never change.

Then go ahead and install all your s/w from the CD-ROM and it's new drive
letter.
