How do I access my CD-Rom if Windows 95(2)is in safe mode? I do not have a Microsoft boot up floppy but I do have a System Disk. Is there a bootup file that can be downloaded?

You can use use the Dos CD Rom driver in the Autoexec.bat and config.sys to load the driver. Use the atapicd.sys in the config.sys and the mscdex.exe in the autoexec.bat.

Here is a link to a site that has a win95 boot with cd support that you can download.

http://www.putergeek.com/downloads/

It is also a very helpful site for all kinds of problems.

There is also another site www.bootdisk.com the almost ultimate in boot disks.

either of these sitea should get you what you need to get up and running.
