Yes I wasn't aware that the Win98SE CD was bootable until the other day, check out 
my link in a previous post.

When I say bootable I don't mean to MS-DOS I mean you can install Win98 when the 
computer starts up providing you have set the boot sequence in the BIOS, I'm still 
going to say BIOS gewg.

I tried mine the other day after that post in the other forum. You are given the 
option to use CD Rom support which you will need.

WinME CD's are bootable as well.
