That may or may not be possible.<br/><br/>If your CD can't be read, that could pose a problem though.I have this old ibm computer with windows 3.11 so I buy a windows 95 cd to upgrade the OS. but the cd-rom is not reading. I already download and install the driver from the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/manufacturer-343883" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MANUFACTURER">MANUFACTURER</a> thinking that was the problem but no luck, then I inspect the physical connections to make sure the cd-rom drive power cable and the IDE drive cable are connected. The OS in the boot process recognize the presence  of the cd-rom drive and don't report any problem. So I have no clue of what is causing the cd-rom drive not to read the cd.

The floppy way may or may not work, the other way certainly would.</body></html>
