Hi, I haven't had to do this for a while so my explanation may not be 100%. I Took a 98 (or ME) Start Up Floppy. Burned a bootable CD on another Comp using Roxio/Adaptec. Copied the floppy to the cd. Used the AUTOEXEC.BAT file from the floppy when the burner asked for it. Nero does the same trick and probably all other decent burners. Also used a RW CD and copied it to an R when I got it right. Saves CDs. Now you have a Bootable CD that is the same as the floppy. That is if the dead COMP can boot a CD. Good Luck, Jim
