Well....you are messing with an IBM computer....lets see, I would start with the BIOS. Check IBM's Website for the latest version and update that if necessary. While you are on their website I would look for any CD drivers that relate to Win9X also. If there are then it might be worth adding them to the Boot Floppy and see if that will wakeup the CD Reader. Keep in mind that there is IBM, and then there is everybody else. Good Luck.
