Mel;
I downloaded the zip I gave you the link to. 
It appears to have  Dos cd drivers included.
looks like you should run dosinst.bat from a Dos prompt.
this should install the dos cd drivers and modify your config.sys/autoexec.bat files
to load the cd at boot.
More info in the "install.txt" file included in the .zip

  Subject: [PCBUILD] driver installation


  Can someone please help me with how to install drivers onto a formated hard drive. The drivers are for a portable CD-ROM drive for my IBM Thinkpad. 560. I have the drivers of floppy but it is giving an error saying I need to install windows first. I can't install windows because I don not have a CD-ROM drive (It is the one I am trying to install drivers for) is there a way I can get around this proble? Please help.

  I am trying to install drivers for windows 98 for a SONY PRD-650 portable CD-ROM drive
