Thanks for following up. :D
BillyBob Booted from the win98SE install CD?
You're doing well. Check out the floppy drive to see if it can read files in windows explorer. If it does, no problem with drive. If you make a...
Say yes to LD Support.
itsthewooo mattman is absolutely correct. Always test a suspect HDD as a slave; don't try to boot it. However, whats done is done and I'm...
If that is the CD you made with the floppy (hope so, sounds like it may be?) you can run fdisk at the a:> prompt and delete and remake the...
Claire Roxio should work fine, if you start a new blank CD and drag and drop the files to it. I'm not sure if it will add to a CD made by the...

T&S Still looks like a problem with the hardware, but would try a new bootable floppy that's never been in that computer and write protect it...

alc so do nothing. The message will go away when your online! :D
surferdude2 I haven't seen anywhere that a 'clean install' cleans an infected disk. Will it overwrite the NTFS? That would be necessary.
That won't be need here. If you do any partitioning, use fdisk. :D Dont hesitate to ask for explanations of the suggestions above if you have...
