[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 538382, member: 56140"] I say it is a harddrive problem. Try swapping both your HDD's and CD-ROM's IDE cable. Try installing Win98 off the HDD. Once you are in the C: prompt. Type this. MD Win9X X being your CDROM (whatever the CDROM letter is, odds are it is E: because Win98 Boot Disk loads a RAM DRIVE> X: CD/WIN98 <hit enter> copy *.* C:/win9X <hit enter> Once the files have been copied then go back to the C prompt and type. CD/Win9x <hit enter> setup.exe <hit enter> See what happens then. Tom [/QUOTE]
