Im trying to install Windows 98se on a PC that has a Core 2 Quad Q6600 with 4GB Ram and a 512MB PCIE video card and I have made a 40 GB partition on a 250GB Sata HDD but when I use my original Windows 98se disk at boot and choose "Start Windows 98 Setup From CD-ROM" it does not load the driver for the DVD drive it says "No drives found, aborting installation." then after some loading it says "device driver not found: OEMCD001. No valid cdrom device drivers selected. The Windows 98 setup files were not found." I have tried two different Sata DVD Drives with the same results so Im guessing its because of the Sata drive or am I missing something?

I already have it set to IDE the other option it had was RAID, I found this motherboards Bios was kind of limited with not many options I dont know if the limited Bios is from the fact its from a Dell Inspiron 530 or not but it does not have any IDE ports on the motherboard to test an IDE DVD drive with Win 98se
