You might know someone who has W98 running. Create a bootdiskette there, get the CDROM-driver for the Thinkpad from somewhere on the diskette, don't forget mscdex, format, himem.sys, fdisk and sys.com. Stick the cdromdriver in /config.sys. That should get you going, I think. Paul (who had a lot to do with M$ in the older days... Damn, I am getting OLD!) -- Don't worry.
