I believe you need to check your jumper settings on the D
drive to slave... your system bios by default does auto
detect on IDE drives. once thats done, on boot the screen
should list your drives or use your win98 boot disk and do
Fdisk to display partitions/fdisk or go into CMOS to make
sure its there.
