Cant Install Windows 98SE. Please help!

Please can anyone tell me if they have successfully installed win 98SE on this motherboard. I have spent many hours with no success. Using the same CD player and installation disc installs fine on my old computer. However with the 865PE/G Neo2-P motherboard it doesnt it work. Bios recognises HD and CD. After partitioning and formatting the HD and booting up with the WIN98 start up disc setup command doesnt work. Error message Device driver not found MSCD001 No valid CD rom drives selected. Have tried using WIN98 full version and Win 98SE upgrade but no success. Any advice would be appreciated please.

I installed Windows 98 with no problems. Your hardware specs will be suitable to analyze your systems possible outfall.

  • Creative Zen Micro Photo not tested for use with Windows so cant install it! Please help

    Heya! Basically when installing the software for Microphoto it stops saying that as my device hasn't been tested for use with windows it cant install for fear of corrupting my laptop! Can anyone help me overcome this because i installed it aagges ago and it let me have the option of continuing the installating, but i had 2 uninstall it and upon reinstalling it it does not give me the option to continue. It just cancels the installation. Can someone please help me as this is driving me nuts!! Y is it that technology is continuosly mucking up grrrrr!

    Are you runnning Win XP SP2? If so, this is a standard warning about unsigned drivers, but it should still give you the option to "continue anyway" to complete the installation.
    Also, make sure you have Windows Media Player 0, as this is needed for Windows XP (drivers) to recognize your MicroPhoto.

    Hi there
    I have a lenovo c340 all in one pc the i3 processor type which came with windows 8
    I have purchased a new hard drive and would like to dual boot windows 7 and 8
    I have tried to install windows 7 and the system hangs before I even get into any configuration however windows 8 loads fine
    I have looked in the bios and the system is showing windows 8 . has lenovo locked the bios to allow windows 8 only ?
    Is there a way to load windows 7 onto the system ?
    I really want to dual boot and have downloaded all of the drivers for windows 7 but for the life of me I can not get past the initial boot screen of my windows 7 disc
    Can anyone help please

    hi botards01,
    If you're planning to use linux occasionally (Ubuntu for example) and you don't want to risk losing the One Key Recovery functionality, try to install Ubuntu via Wubi as this doesn't repartition your HDD but creates a virtual disk on your current OS.

    Hope this helps

  • CANT INSTALL ITUNES 9. please help!

    i keep trying to install the new iTunes and i am unable to no matter what i do.
    ive downloaded the file 3 different times trying to see if itll change but doesnt. ive done some troubleshooting from apples help.
    i keep getting the error message when trying to install:
    "There is a plobrem with this WIndows Installer package. A program reguired for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personal or package vendor."
    please help me someone...

    This message often relates to a problem with Apple software update. So try this first:
    Go to Add remove programs and find Apple Software update. Try repairing it.
    Select Change>>repair.
    If that works, try installing iTunes.
    Otherwise try uninstalling any instance you find of Apple Software update. That probably will not work if repair didn't.
    Next try an installer cleanup.
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install Cleanup
    Remove any instance you find of Apple software update with the cleanup utility.
    Download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer and save it on your desktop.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Restart your computer and try installing iTunes.

  • Can't Install Windows Program -PLEASE HELP

    This is now my 3rd attempt at trying to install stupid Windows on my Mac (need for merchant account and quickbooks).
    Anyway, I ordered Microsoft XP 2000 Home OEM. I actually go a link from a person on this board. I am a little concerned because the packaging and CD says 'to be distributed with a new PC'. It has been my problem that I have been using Free software and it won't take the Free version.
    Okay, here is what I have done so far
    1. Partitioned HD for Windows in Bootcamp
    2. Inserted new Windows CD
    3. Screen goes White(ish) and you here the Windows (bong).
    4. CD ejects
    5. Screen goes black and then you get a message that says 'no bootable device insert boot disk press any key)
    6. Reinsert CD, nothing happens
    Concern is there is some old Windows on this when I have tried to download in the past. I however cannot find anywhere and believe that I ahve removed everything. I did download a trial version of Parallels and tried to download another Windows version, but I removed everything from my computer that had to do with Paralles (or so I thought...even emptied trash).
    So, I am DESPERATE!! PLEASE HELP
    5. Insert

    Here is where I am now...
    I was able to remove Windows from Bootcamp.
    I go through the set up again.
    I get through everything and it says the computer will reboot and continue with setup.
    During the reboot, the disk ejects, then I get a black screen that says Disk Error press any key. Nothing happens when you press a key and you have to manually shut down. When I reboot, I get two icons, MAC HD and Windows HD. Yet, nothing comes up when I click on Windows HD.
    PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME. I have spent hours on this and I really don't think I am THAT stupid.
    I know people don't get paid to help, but if someone could walk me through this. Mac won't help me.

    I intended to install windows on my macbook, but I removed Mac os X wrongly! Now I don't know how to install Mac again please help me.

    I still don't know which version of OSX you have but assuming it's 10.7 or 10.8 .....
    You need to press command-R (at the sound of the chime) to get into recovery, try that, if it does not work try command-option-R for Internet Recovery.

    Hi Andreas,
    Please specify your hardware and software. Running OSX? Which version? Old hardware/new hardware?
    It is not sure what your problem is: is it that the CD will not eject? Or is it that the winbdows cd is not installing?

  • Can't download latest iTunes on Windows 7, please help?

    Hi,
    I'm having trouble downloading the lastest version of iTunes from the apple website.
    I clicked download iTunes etc and then got the itunessetup thingy, so I tried installing it but within seconds the wizard does to the end page and says:
    'ITunes installer completed.
    The installer encountered errors before itunes could be configured. Errors occured during installation. Your system has not been modified.
    Please run the installer again, or click finish to exit.'
    I have tried installing it several times and keep getting the same issue. I also uninstalled everything I have from Apple on my laptop and tried installing iTunes again then with no luck.
    It's really frustrating me now and i have no idea what to do. I've tried searching this issue but other people have posted about different problems to this one so I dont know how to fix it. Help please?
    Thanks

    new to Windows 8, please help me.
    Coming from Windows 7?  It is quite analogous, especially if you were a keyboard user.  Ctrl-Esc (or press and release Win) shows you the equivalent of the Start Menu, which is now called the Start Screen.  In W7 once you brought up the
    Start Menu you may have been aware that you could either click on pinned items, click on pinned Taskbar buttons, click on Desktop shortcuts, OR... do some typing to bring something up from your installed applications.  Well, in W8 we could do the first
    and the last completely the same and now in W8.1.1 we can do all of those things.  There are also new options which can keep you mostly oblivious of the Start Screen if you would prefer to do that.
    But to answer your specific example, after you see the Start Screen (or All apps view of it) just start typing P O

  • CANT FLASH MY N900 PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!!!!

    hi all im new here just thought you people could help me.
    When i try to flash my n900 it says usb device not found. wating. when i connect my n900 in usb mode it does nothing.im using windows vista please help!!!!!!!!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ovi suite absolutely won't work with the N900.. There is a beta due out soon that will support the N900 (there's a thread about joining the beta here: /t5/Maemo-Devices/N900-owners-wanted-to-beta-test-​next-Ovi-Suite/td-p/667149/jump-to/first-unread-me​... )
    You can have Ovi and PC suite installed at the same time..
    When you ran flasher, follow the test steps first?
    turn phone off
    press and hold U
    plug phone into computer
    run flasher..
    If you try and run flasher whilst the phone is booted up or turned off, it won't work
