Why don't you fdisk and format the drive and then install W98? If you are

The floppy drive will need to be set as the first boot device in the BIOS.


Darn!! well, win98se installed just fine, eveything works, EXCEPT I
still can't copy or move anything from the floppy to the hard drive.

the files show up, I can highlight them, but they will not transfer,
same error as before... "cannot read from specified device"

any ideas?
