Boot Image for Win98SE Options

[jaclaz]

My two cents:
1) I have never seen, either heard of a "copy protected" Win 98 CD, and I've seen quite a few of them
2) Most probably it is a "mechanical" problem, like misalignment of laser or whatever.
3) Try this proggy (freeware):
CDCHECK
CDCheck is a utility for the prevention, detection and recovery of damaged files on CD-ROMs with an emphasis on error detection. With CDCheck you can check your CDs and discover which files are corrupted. By using the program proactively, you can insure that your data on CD-ROMs are safe -- before it's too late! CDCheck provides the following features: readability verification, binary compare, CRC file creation (and verification) and file recovery.

It will tell you what the actual problem is, most probably will let you copy the tricky files, if not post again with results from CDCHECK and we'll see what we can do to help you further.

another way you "could" attempt to do it is use:

CODE

 
xcopy (cdrom):\*.* C:\WIN98SE\*.* /E /I /V

and see if that will work. I know when it gives me a hard time sometimes doing it in WinXP that's what I end up doing and it usually works.

The command above will left behind (if any) all hidden files (/h missing), and will reset the Read only file attribute (/k missing), try this instead:

CODE

copy32 [cdrom]:\*.* C:\WIN98SE\*.* /i /s /e /r /v /k /f /c /h

Note:
Xcopy is just a redirection to XCOPY32
/s and /e could be condensed in just /e, but as Nick Rage put it,

We even made it easy to remember..
