device driver not found: mscd001
I keep getting the error: device driver not found:
mscd001-along with no valid cdrom device drivers selected. I have downloaded a win98 bootdisk and I have partitioned and reformatted my hard drive. When I boot and choose to boot with cdrom support the computer does not see my cdrom drive and thus loads no drivers. I am about to pull my hair out!!!!!! I have been trying everything for nearly a week each night and have had no success. I have to have the cdrom to install win98se. Can anyone help me. I would appreciate the help. Thanks, Bill (Alabamabubba) |

For information on installing W98, go to:
http://home.satx.rr.com/badour/html/w98_restore.html Make a boot disk with the directions I have in my installation instructions. I also include directions on how to alter the boot disk to include specific CDRom drivers if needed. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "Bill" wrote in message ...

Your cdrom drivers are NOT on your boot(startup) disk. I
have been there many times. OAKcdrom.sys is the one win98se puts on the book disk made on win98se machine. The drivers are generic and wont run on ALL cdroms. Get name of your cdrom, go to google and find drivers, put on your start up disk. Reboot/Reboot.

You don't have your cdrom drivers on your boot disk. Go
to google and search your cdrom's manuf and serial nr of cd rom and get drivers. Put them on your start up disk. windows puts cdrom drivers on the startup disk, but they don't work for all cdrom drives. |
