i tried that i changed the boot sequesnce and it did not start loading it said invalid disk what i want to do is start up the computer to reformat the hard drive and reinstall windows how can i do that i do not have a floppy and i have to use a computer which will only allow you to save things on a floppy disk

I didn't really get that one...

If you have a CD Drive, then you could create a Bootdisk from the Win98 CD.
Otherwise download the files and copy it to your floppy. -> http://masterbootrecord.de/files/bootdisks/wboot98.exe

is the link to a zip file or will it work if i save it to a floppy and put it in my computer and how can i tell in the bios that the floppy drive is working
