Won't recognise CD-ROM after formatting

[Axus]

2 year old IBM PC. I have formatted the HHD and it won't find the CD-RW ( liteon 485S). I have tried bootup discs for 95, 98, etc.
I get " Device driver not found: 'MSCD001' No valid CDROM device drivers selected". I have tried another CD-RW and it is just the same. Help please at DUMMY level.

Hi Axus,

When you started your computer with the Win98 boot disk---when the Windows Menu appeared it should have given you the choice to restart with CD_ROM support. Did you choose this option?

Did you check to make sure the jumper was set correctly and the cables connected nice and tight?

Just some thoughts.

Hi Spaceman. Yes I did use with CD support, the cables are well in tight but I don't know what jumpers are ???
( see why I said DUMMY )
Thanks
