You know I read that several times and I still don't get it. I am trying to put a new hard drive in a machine that has no floppy disk drive in it, so I need to be able to use the CDROM drive that it does have in it to do whatever it is that I have to do to that hard drive in order to put windows 98 on it. I am sorry for being so slow here, but I just cannot put 2 and 2 together. Am I supposed to burn all of the contents of the windows98 bootdisk(a 3 1/2" floppy) to that CDROM and the contents of the win98 folder to that CDROM and stick it in the solo5300(that does not have a floppy drive) and it will work like a regular bootdisk in a floppy drive?? I have all kinds of burning software and drives at my disposal in order to make whatever I need, but I'm just plum damn embarrassed at this point!!:( That article was not clear to me) Jim
