Billy Reynolds - Please tell us what you are trying to do.  If you are running XP what are you trying to do with the MS-Dos startup disk?

Maybe you better start a new thread???
One good deed is worth more than a year of good intentions.

    mari2.....Are you using a original Win 98 cd or is it a copy ? That could be your problem.....I see that you are able to format your C drive ok and it seems that you are able to load the necessary files from your win98 boot disk .......when you get the A prompt after the boot disk loads ......are you able to change the A prompt to the R prompt ok ? And you put the cd in the drive and type setup.....and it loads ok ?

    let us know
