    Did you make the Win 98 Startup Disk via Control Panel...Add/Remove Programs....Startup Disk tab ?

    If so....selection 3 view help file....should have brought up a basic readme.txt file located on the floppy.

    I suggest you try making one again....either with that same floppy or another floppy.
