Gentlemen/Gentlewomen:

I am STILL trying to install Windows 98 on my new, used computer. As a result of a suggestion from previous post, I did try to utilize typing "e:\ setup at the "A:\" DOS prompt. It yielded an error message of "Invalid Drive Specification". I don't know what that means, though. I have tried to boot up the computer this way: I insert the floppy (boot up) disk, choose Start up win CD Rom support (from the Win 98 Start up menu) SCREEN and then get the error message "No drivers found, aborting installation". However, the computer continues on to inform me that PCI bus scans are complete and it is "preparing to start the computer" and "diagnostic tools are sucessfully loaded to drive D". When I typed "B: setup" at the "A:" prompt, the message received was " Insert diskette for drive B, press any key". I also have received the message, "Insert diskette for drive A" (I ejected and reinserted the floppy) and received the error message "Bad command or file name". Of my many questions are also, how do I ascertain what the particular letter is that identifies each of my drives, how do know if I have drivers correctly installed for each of my drives and do I need to partition, format, setup (or anything else, each drive) in order to get this computer to accept/install windows 98? Perhaps the previous owner did setup, partitioning, etc.--that I don't know. Lastly, is it possible, if I left the the boot up floppy and the Win 98 CD in their slots in the CPU, that I may have erased all the data on them when I formatted (but apparently didn't partition) the hard drive, and that's why I am having difficulty getting Windows installed? THANK you kindly for your patience and assistance.
