Hello I work with Satellite 2180. I have a problem with reinstall windows 98 after formatting C:
I have a boot disk with CD support for the A: drive. When I start up it works well he makes also a ram drive on D:. It sees the CD at E: and the dir and the setup.exe but it won't start when I type setup or setup.exe. I deed also type E:\setup it will not work.
I understand that there is no CDrom driver in MS DOS. I have the original win 98 cd

Please help me. Sorry for my English. I am Dutch

If you have an original win 98 CD it is possible to boot from the cd. You may have to enter the bios to change the boot device to cd-rom. You could also try formatting the hard drive from a win 98 boot floppy disc and then starting your computer with the win 98 cd-rom in the drive. The setup should start automatically.
