To make the OS quit asking for the CD

The steps:
1. Go to the Start menu, select Run, and type in "regedit" (without the quotes), click OK. This will launch the Registry Editor.
2. In the left pane, open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\SETUP.
3. In the right pane, scroll down till you see SourcePath. Double-click on it.
4. Change the path (i.e. E:\win98cd\win98) to your own setup directory (i.e. C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\CABS\). Note: You must have the backslash at the end of your path.
5. Close regedit
