I am trying to load Windows 98 SE onto a formatted hard
drive. The computer worked fine before I formatted it.
When I try to reinstall Windows from the CD the computer
runs ScanDisk and the says; please remove all disks from
the floppy drive and press any key to restart your
computer. (or something very similar) I then have to start
again.

Any ideas?

umm, do you have a disk in the floppy drive?
if you boot to cd you shouldnt need a boot floppy in there.
if it is clear and you get the message, try putting in a blank and then
eject it, sometimes the little mech in there can think he has a disk in and
it does not.
