Reinstalling Windows 98

NOTICE: The operating system CD provides options for reinstalling your
Windows 98 Second Edition operating system. The options can potentially
overwrite files installed by Dell and possibly affect programs installed on your
hard drive. Therefore, Dell does not recommend that you reinstall your
operating system unless instructed to do so by a Dell technical support
representative.
NOTICE:
To prevent conflicts with Windows 98, you must disable any virus
protection software installed on your computer before you reinstall
Windows 98.
Turn on the computer and enter the system setup program as directed
1
by a Dell technical support representative (see page 82).
In the system setup program Boot menu, write down the boot
2
sequence, and then change it so that the CD or DVD drive boots first,
as directed by a Dell technical support representative. Then place the
operating system CD in the CD or DVD drive and close the drive tray.
