Hi Gregg; I see that you're still 'playing' with Hard Drives, ah?

        Usually, in not-so-old BIOSes, one can set the CD-ROM as one of
the BOOT options. If you put it before the IDE option, and insert the
WIN98 CD; The system will boot from the CD-ROM drive. Try to find this
options in the second menu of the BIOS (Advanced CMOS setup). ((The BIOS
setup you can enter hitting DEL at boot, mostly)).

        Other option is to install you'r CD-ROM is DOS. Then, from D:
(where D is your CD drive) you just run SETUP.EXE.

        I hope that this is what you wanted to know;
                Sami Garzon :)
