windows 98 floppy disk version
You still haven't replied if the laptop can use both a floppy and a cod AT
THE SAME TIME or is only one of them active at the time, e.g. slide floppy drive out and put cd drive in. In they are, just boot with the EBD floppy and do what people have said. If you can get the Win98 folder off the cd copied onto the laptops hard drive you don't need the cd to install. Just run Setup found within that folder. I had a laptop with no cd drive once and I used a zip drive to do that. "DanT" wrote in message ... no, i have a start up disk. What I need is the FLOPPY DISK VERSION OF WINDOWS 98 instead. My BIOS settings do not allow for the booting of CDs. I already have the CD version of Windows 98. Is there any way to download the OS onto FLOPPY DISKS or can i use my CD version to transfer it to FLOPPY DISKS? My Laptop only allows for the use of one drive at a time, and since windows won't boot because it's corrupt and won't boot CD's on startup I have to use my FLOPPY DRIVE.

Is there any way I can make or get Windows 98 on floppy disks? If the laptop has both a floppy and a CD drive, go to http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm and create a Windows 98 boot floppy. Use it to start the laptop, select "Start with CD support", insert your Windows 98 CD, type "setup" and press "Enter". Ben |
