Wat vinden jullie van deze methode uit een US-forum, is dit te gebruiken of verlies ik zo al mijn drivers???
It ain't no big deal, if you have a legal 98/SE OEM CD with the 25 digit key. Yes?
(a windows 98/se upgrade CD would be nice, but not required for this job)
I do that all the time. It's just that the OEM CD wants to load to a blank hard drive.
It doesn't like seeing an OS already loaded.
To trick it into loading, you must first make yourself a 98 Boot floppy, if you don't already have one.
Then, on your hard drive make a new folder and call it WIN98SE.
Then, put in the 98/SE CD and don't let it run. Open it up in Windows Explorer and copy all the files from the \Win98\ folder to the new folder you made on your hard drive.
NOW,,,, reboot your system with your boot floppy.
You must rename win.com to something else. you can do that by typing this line at the DOS prompt.
ren C:\windows\win.com C:\windows\win.old
Be sure to leave the space after 'ren' and before the second C:
At the DOS prompt, type C:\win98SE\setup /ie /is
(leave a space before each /. and press Enter
Windows 98SE setup will run and begin your install. It will accept your old registry, drivers and all data on the drive will remain intact. You'll need the 25 digit registration Key. YOU need NOT register with MS.
This process takes about an hour on the average system. The less RAM you have, the longer it will take.
