Can I restore Windows 98 from an USB external CR-rom drive?
I want to install a brand new hard drive as the C:\ drive and install WinNT directly to it. The problem in the process is the strange behavior of my CD-ROM.

Drive letters mixed up
Boot up with a win9x floppy disk and SYS the C: drive, then remove ntldr, boot.ini and ntdetect.exe. Also remove the partition that you put Win 2k on.

Put the disk in, boot up the computer, and DOS should come up via the boot disk. You won't have CD-ROM access yet, but don't worry about it. Type "SYS C:" (without quotes) to make
