This is what the bios looks like. I set it that way and it still tries to boot from the c:\.

I downloaded a file off of the internet in order to make a boot disk, but it won't do me any good if the computer won't try to boot from the a:\.

 

Don't you have to drag one of the floppy drives down to the open box on the bottom left to set it to boot from floppy?

(I don't actually know - I haven't seen a pictograph BIOS in a LONG time!)

Nah, I dragged them from the bottom to the top.

 

Got me stumped there chief. It doesn't try to seek the floppy at all when you turn it on?

In situations like these - I remove the hard drive from the laptop - use an adapter to plug it in to a standard IDE channel on my PC and format, fdisk, copy the win98 folder from the install CD to the notebook hard drive then install from there.
