EDIT: Problem Resolved
Could really use some help here.... Been trying to install the chipset drivers after assembling the rig. using the retail disk (the crappy thing has drivers from 1/15/03-over a year old!)
Anyway, so far can't get the installer to work. After the the notice about the install shield I get a pop up titled "Browse for Folder" telling me to insert the win98 disk into the drive indicated below (on my directory tree displayed below message).
Well, the only thing highlighted is "My Computer". Nothing seems to work. E.g., if I try to insert win98 disk, first I get the usual waring about 'eject request to drive in use" then after inserting 98se and hitting ok or whatever I get the follwing message:
ERROR READING CD-ROM IN DRIVE E:
PLEASE INSERT CD-ROM WITH SERIAL NUMBER 906D-599F IN E:
IF CD-ROM IS STILL IN THE DRIVE, IT MAY REQUIRE CLEANING
PRESS ENTER FOR OK OR ESC TO CANCEL"
WTF is going on? Btw this after a fresh install on 98se
and no need to tell me about win XP, ain't an option now and researched the abit site before purchasing to insure that it s/b compatible with 98se
I'd really apprerciate some help. I've been futzing with this d@mmed thing for two days.
Note: nothings OC'ed yet
Thanks
