Just a point of conversation, heres what I usually do... Partition the disc into C / D Copy all the files from the Windows CD in Win98 to a folder on D, say win98.src Install Windows from there D:\win98.src\setup.exe Now install the rest of your software and get the install just the way you want it. Now all you have to do is use Norton Ghost (its frequently bundled with new motherboards) to make an image of C onto D. If anything goes wrong* in the future, Ghost the image back onto C and 4 minutes later you have a working system just the way you created it. You might be able to use G4U for this tasks also? http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/ *Not in cases of HDD failure obviously, you could burn the image onto a CD though ...
