Angry Fire System/Boot Disk

I am currently building my first compuet. I need some tech support. I tunr on my computer and I am prompted to enter my system disk and press enter. I dont know where to get this or how to make it. I currently have windows ME on a computer and want to install windows 98SE on my new one. I have the OS CDROM but I do not have the system floppy disk needed for iniatial bootup. Can someone please tell me how to make it or where to aquire one? Thanks.

You can either make one from your other PC that has ME on it, go to ControlPanel>add remove programs and there is a tab for making a boot disk, or U can set the new PC to boot from CDROM and just use the Win98 cdrom to boot and install that way...

Yep you don't need a floppy as the CD is bootable.
