Guest doggunracing Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 I have it on CD if you want to convert it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
302Powered Posted April 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 I have it on cd I just don't want to deal with converting it. I figure someone still has it in a box somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 It would probably be easier to find a way to hook up a cd rom to whatever you want to install it on than it would be to find it on disk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadDawg Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 I think I've got a full set in my office, I'll check first thing Monday morning. One of the benefits about medical equipment being about four operating systems behind the rest of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

302Powered Posted April 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 I need the diskettes so that the cd rom will work. It is not just easier to put in a cd rom. This is for an old laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex1647545498 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 If you have a windows 98 SE boot up disk it will start DOS with the CD drive enabled. I have it but I will be in Atlanta for another week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
302Powered Posted April 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 I need the diskettes for Windows 95 only. I don't want to upgrade. It already has Win 95 OS on the hard drive. I swapped the drive from another laptop I have. I need the diskettes so it will recognize the cd drive and various other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex1647545498 Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 You can use a 98 boot disk to load dos and your cd rom. Then use a 95 cd for installing windows. Using a 98 boot disk does not automatically upgrade you to windows 98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadDawg Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Sorry so long to get back, the disks I thought I had are gone. Only thing I've got are an old set of IBM recovery disks, but they'll wipe your HD if you use them to install Windows. I do have a copy of IBM's OS2 Warp, tho.
