See my other post below. Was running Win 95, formatted HDD and now want to install Win 98se. PC starts OK but wont recognise 98 startup floppy disk - no system disk error. Nor will it recognise the Win 95 or 98 system disks from bootdisk.com.
I do have an old 98 startup disk that runs ok and I can access the Win98 CD using this but it wont recognise any of the usual commands - setup or extract. Been in Bios and starting from CD doesn't seem to be an option.
Any ideas?

I have mailed you over a Windows 98SE bootdisk 
Once you boot from the floopy disk (to give you CDROM support)you need to type
D:\ (Assuming D is your CDROM)
Setup.exe
