Has any one been successful in runnin win98 off a cd if so

can you list full details.I'm askin because i have all files except Coa2.exe

now i have 2 buy from pc mag. Thats not the problem. The problem would b buyin it, but having no success.

yes i have 98 live cd or wincd and it works perfectly just install a fresh 98se then add your programs run live cd program baring in mind to keep it under 700mb then run the cd it will make you make a floppy to start it. Self explanatory in instruction a simple wizard. The version i have is freeware (not warez) in which i got prior to the companies going under its from qualumsystems.Get it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HGKYWEL0

It's getting harder to find a copy of Coa2 but try this link. There are still free downloads of this utility

out there, and it's too bad that PC magazine has eliminated their free downloads.

Are you saying you can run 98se from a cd instead of a hard drive ?

Yes, just read the thread on the 911cd forum I posted a link to, all related links are there.

Is there any way 2 remove wmp 6.4 since i wont be usin it

but be able to play all wmp formats.

In other words i wanna use MPC with all wmp codecs

Is it possible.

but im not shure, (it im right the 98cd still lets you select components....

Hello, does anyone know where I can find Ettool.exe?

Link given on this site doesn't work:

http://www.lachiesadicristo.it/w98cd/page1.htm

and google doesn't find anything useful either.

I'm askin because i have all files except Ettool.exe.

Search "ettool14.zip" not "ettool.exe", as most files for download will be compressed. Found this:

If your BIOS supports it, can you boot directly from cd w/o using a floppy?

Yes, sure, that's all the point about BOOT CD's.
