How do I assign a drive letter to my CD Rom at DOS to enable installing Windows 98 from a CD? Some background on this is that I have just installed a new hard drive, ran Fdisk and Format. The primary hard disk partition works and the PC boots from the hard drive, C.
The CD Rom controller is enabled in Setup and the CD Rom drive is automaically detected. The primary controller has only the new hard drive, the secondary controller has only the CD Rom drive. No change in this configuration as it had worked with the previous drive which had to be replaced. Mscdex.exe loads at boot up right after the hard drive being recognized. The available drive letters are A for my 3 1/2" floppy drive, C for my primary hard drive partition and B. The B drive does not invoke the CD ROM drive which I thought might. I could always change the drive letter later.
Thanks in advance for suggestions to resolve this.
