I'm stumped on this one. My mom installed Win98 update on her old (233 or there abouts) compaq. It had 95 on it, but she needed 98 for some accounting software or something. Anyways, it didn't carry any drivers over, which I thought the Update version would. I can't get the cd drive to show up for shit. How do I go about installing the driver from the A: drive ? I've tried to copy the windows cd drivers to the floppy and install that way, but to no avail. Its been so long since I really messed with that sort of thing I've exhausted my options. The compaq restore cd is a pos aswell, and that will only format and reinstall all of the compaq b.s software with 95... Thanks for the advice, I need to get the pos running ASAP.

Thanks again

Delete the IDE Controler in safe more - Reboot and start normally, let it re-detect.
