Installing Win98SE with Vista
Well, because my graphics card is crap, I enjoy playing older games. One of my favourites is Midtown Madness 2, released in either 1999 or 2000 (I don't remember). Anyway, I'm trying to install Windows 98 SE alongside with Vista. I'll probably use it for playing older games, since it will use almost no RAM. The problem I'm having is that I don't have a floppy disk drive in/for my laptop, either internal or external. Each time I try to install it, when I get to a certain point, it says "If you have HPFS or NTFS installed on your hard drive, you will need to create an MS-DOS Boot Partition to setup windows". Is there any way I can install Windows 98 without using a floppy disk? Any help would be much appreciated.
