If you are installing 98 again, on the C: drive, create c:\windows\options\cabs and copy all the Win98 files into the cabs file. Then run setup from C:windows\options\cabs. This will make it so you'll never need to use the Win98 CD when you add new hardware. When Windows asks which directory to install windows in, do not use windows.000, just remove the zeros and it will set up windows in the directory you created.

Hope this helps.

So, humm... I would have to use dos...arg! I know nothing about dos. All I know is the command dir and dir/w. I don't even know how to change folders or browse the hard drive.

I'm a windows guy, I never used dos much. I think my dos is bugged, too. It does strange things.
