I aquired this little jewel a day or so ago.  Something to play around
with.  What I need to know is this.  When it goes to boot, it says
that the cdrom driver is not ready.  Abort or retry?  Retry does not
worki, have to use abort.  When the 98se finishes loading it showes
the cd rom but will not access it.  My delimma is this, it has the
removable cdrom, where once removed I can put in a floppy.
Unfortunately, I don't have the floppy modules.  

Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?  Or does anyone have a floppy
modules for cheap?  Also has no battery.  Everything is in fine
working order but the cdrom.

Any help would be appreciated.  

Thanks in advance

Malcolm
