i have 98. i know when i installed it on my last computer, and tried to install the software that came with it, the computer was dead for months. its a phillips cd-rw drive, and it was a compac computer. this computer that im using now, which is my parents is a HP. So i can leave the old drive in and just make the new one the primary and the other the slave? or do i have that backwards?




Go into device manager and un-install the drivers for the old CD-Rom, pull out the old drive and check the jumper settings, set the new drive to the same jumper settings, install it and power up. You can then install the new drivers, use the add hardware feature and it should auto-detect the drive. Be sure that the new drive is compatible and has the correct drivers for win98 before doing anything though.
