A win98 boot diskette can be made by going to the control panel and selecting add/remove programs then select the Startup Disk TAB and the click on create disk. You must have a 1.44 MB formatted diskette with NO bad sectors. This will allow you to boot to a "DOS" prompt. from the "A:" prompt type format c: /q ;answer yes to are you sure? md c:win98 copy D:win98 C:win98 ; where D: is your CD-ROM c: cd win98 setup You will need the WIN98 or WIN98SE FOLDER from the Install CD and the 25 character registration code. I usually make a text file with the CD key and put it in the WIN98 directory on my hard drive. WIN98 Directory on the Hard Drive? YES! I copy the WIN98 directory to the hard drive and run the setup from the hard drive. Then I never have to look for the 98 CD when a program asks for it.
