having trouble installing win98 on a laptop with no os
- have a similar situation. i have formatted and partitioned a laptop , i
have both the external floppy and cd drive units, but while the floppy drive
is hooked up with the bootdisk in it, it can't recognize, or find, a cd
drive on the laptop, so ultimately i can not run the win98 install disk i
have. the lap top does not have the driver installed for the cd drive. what
can i do to get the cd drive working when hooked up.
thanks for any info.

I got a laptop free and wanted to install 98 on it, a clean install for my
nephew. I burned a bootcd, and managed to format and partition it, my
trouble
starts because I dont have another disk drive to put the iso I have in, I
only have the one drive, the laptop does not have a Floppy drive.
Any suggestions? Whenever I try and use any setup commands I get invalid
media trying to read disk
