no CD. just old win 98 OS. Will not load or see any driver for new
motherboard, graphics adapter, etc... have tried everything here:
http://www.motherboard.windowsreinstall.com/win98me.htm

twice

MB bios set to PIC..OS still tries to load ACPI after deleteing
autoexec.bat, config.sys and win.ini and the C;\Windows\inf\other

OS was originally installed on PIC Bios. I goofed and ran it on an ACPI bios
with the new MB.. since then it will not see anything but basic MS win98
drivers
