Well, I knew it wasn't going to be that easy.
Windows 98 ES ......OEM or Custom without Ramdrive?
Do I need Mirror 1 or Mirror 2?
By disk do they mean a floppy disk?
Copied the OEM version to a CD and inserted it into the computer. Nothing happened. Properties said it was "read only". Tried to open the CD drive and it asked me to insert another CD to write to.
I went to a DOS prompt and typed in c: /u and nothing happened.
I am clearly overmatched here. I am wondering now if this is really necessary. The computer works OK. It just has a bunch of programs, hotfixes, etc. I wanted to give a clean computer to my daughter's family.
Thanks for your efforts and comments.
