In the past I've always edited the file msdos.sys to set up my computer to boot from dos instead of windows... I just reinstalled windows like a day ago... Msdos.sys isn't there, is there any other way I could change this? Or can I get the file?

if memory serves msdos.sys is a hidden file. On 98 the file has to be there for it finish boot.
Trying opening a dos console, go to root, type attrib msdos.sys and then see if you get a response.
thanks, it was a hidden file, I forgot to change the view settings.
During boot up you could always press the Ctrl key repeatedly.
>>ctrl key
or F8 or del or whatever it's set to recognize, i've seen F8 more often than not.
