linney, bcastner, and freestone... Thank you all very much for your help. I'm coming up on my finals this next week and final term papers due. I've decided to reinstall win98. This is not my first choice because my machine isn't very stable, which is why I bought winxp because I've heard such...

Freestone/bcastner thanks. Ok, I'm not sure how to find out the model of the asus board, can this be done in the bios? I'm sorry that I do not have this information on hand. Also, as far as the jumpers on the cdrom/cdrw are concerned, as far as I know they are correct. No one but me has done...

Still at this stupid xp thing... Reformatted HardDrive and converted to NTFS. Installed winxp home ed. and now i'm getting i386 folder missing and no IEXPLORER file. So, I would like to download bcastner's suggestion to fix my disappearing cdrw problem, but now I'm stuck with a worse mess LOL...

Yes, both cdrws show up as artec/adaptec and memorex, in the bios. Thanks for your help = )

Hi there, I'm new to the forum. Full time student/part time educator in windows office basics. I recentally installed winxp from win98. I do not have a dual boot system. I formatted c: and installed winxp home. Obviously used the cdrom to install, but after install cdroms were not detected. No...
