Question about 'How do I get my CD-ROM drive to work in DOS?'

I installed a new 30 gig. hard drive and used my windows Me start up disk to start up. I used fdisk to enable Fat 32 and partitioned it. Then formated it. Rebooted up with Windows Me startup disk and choose to start up with CD. It tells me my CD is on drive E but when I type E:setup ,it doesn't even try to read my CD, it come up quick that it can not read it. I'm sure my CD is good. I then went into the bio setup and choose to boot-up to the CD, but when It boots up it says boot-up file not found with out even trying to read my CD. I had Windows Me CD inserted and I have setup windows like this before. Help my if you can please.

Hi David, the actual command should be E:\setup (not E:setup), the other way to do it is at the A prompt first type E: then press enter then type setup and press enter.
