Hello all,

I have found many people with the same problem as mine, but there solutions have 
not helped me.  I have an old computer which was messed up by the previous owner, 
so I wanted to clean out the hard drive and reinstall windows.  I formatted the drive 
and now I get this message whenever I boot up the computer.  Note: This is after 
I have tried copying driver files from a Windows95b boot disk and Windows98 boot 
disk to the clean hard drive.

The computer prompts:
Boot from floppy
Boot from fixed

When I select boot from fixed, I get the Windows 95 splash screen for a few seconds 
and then the following message:

CD-ROM Device Driver for IDE (Four Channels Supported)
(C) Copyright Oak Technology Inc. 1993-1996
Driver Version            : V340
Driver Name              : BANANA
No drivers found, aborting installation
Device driver not found: 'BANANA'
No valid CDROM device drivers selected

Where do I go from here??
