CD boot problem wth nospin.
Milton
The advice below is correct. However, you also have to change the
equivalent line in the config.sys file too and make sure the CD
driver sys file is at the root of A: as well as the mscdex.exe file.
> You should copy the file in question (MSCDEX.EXE, usually found in
> C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM of any Windows-95/98 PC) to your "boot device" (a
> NOSPIN boot diskette?) and then edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file on the
> diskette:

> LH c:\path\mscdex.exe /d, etc.

> LH A:\mscdex.exe /d, etc.

> That should fix the problem.
