It's really quite simple with Win98, Jun...

Go to your desktop and right-click on My Computer
Click on Properties
Click on Device Manager
Double Click on the CD ROM
Click on your Specific Model CD-ROM
Click Properties
Click Settings
Near the bottom you should see "Reserved Drive Letters"
Put a "D" in both places...

That should do it!

...Hope this helps...
