    Hi, I cleaned and formatted my hard drive now im trying to load windows 98 from bootdisk. When I try option #1 (start windows 98 from cd rom) It starts to load then I get message (scanning pci bus using pci bios interfaces)then nothing else happends it just sits there.The same thing happends on option#2(start computer with cd rom support) I also tried option #3(start computer without cd rom support)and when I get the prompt and type setup it tells me bad command. Can someone help me please.
    Thanks.

    Once you've done an fdisk, and cleaned your hd, then formatted it..Make sure you have removed your floppy boot disk...and insert your cd...restart ya pc and go into the bios and select the first boot device as cdrom..
    Press f10 to save new bios..

    then it should boot from cd and install win 98 again....
