I hope this is the right place to ask this, so here goes.
My laptop has a ton of spyware and other crap. I want to reformat the hard drive. I do not have the original cd for this laptop, but I do have a copy of OS that i want to install. However, the laptop doesnot have a floppy drive which I need to use the 98 boot disk. The OS cd is not bootable. How do I get around this? thx
 
USB floppy drive is one option and how I got my floppy/cdrom-less laptop OS installed (also used a usb cdrom).
