re: why cant i install from the recovery disk onto new hard drive? Tuesday, January 15, 2002 at 6:56 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Michael (2800 messages posted) It may be that you were given one of those crappy CD's that only work with one manufacturer's model of PC, and so if you build your own, it isn't the generic source of drivers, etc. that a standard Windows 98 CD is. You probably need to get a standard Windows 98 CD (plus you need a boot disk and DOS drivers for your CD drive).
