Try using an alternative bootdisk rather than the Windows 98 one itself.. Had a friend who used the Microsoft Bootdisks for windows and it didn't detect his cd rom drive until he got a more complex bootdisk that did everything for him.

You may have to manually edit the boot disk that Win98 makes. this is sometimes needed if the CD Rom is an old one. If you can't do it yourself you may need a friend's help.

When I posted this link last week it worked although it is not working this morning for me! I hope the site returns.
