Upgrading from Win95 to Win98SE
 

An old laptop with Win95 I upgraded with Win98 Second
Edition "Upgrade" CD.

However, when I next try to update Win98 with my Win98
Second Edition "Updates" CD, I do the following:

1) Insert CD
2) Click "Add/Remove Software"
3) Click "Have Disk" on "Windows Setup" tab in Add/Remove
Software Properties" pop-up
4) But then I get "install from disk" and "copy
manufacturer's files from A:/"

PROBLEM at this point: the Win98SE Updates CD is in the
E:/ drive NOT the A:/

So QUESTION: How do I get the hard drive's Win98SE updated
by the files on the CD?

Also, are there any Win98SE updates on the MS website that
should be downloaded AFTER I get the CD Update taken care
of?

Thanx.

Upgrading from Win95 to Win98SE
 

Forget going to the control panel and simply, install the CD..... assuming
you've not disabled it, the CD will auto-run. From there's, it's simply a
case of clicking a few options.

If the Update CD doesn't run, look at it in Explorer and click setup.exe.
There are a ton of updates for SE--look for the update shortcut on the start
menu and go there.
