Please help

The machine isn't finding your boot files. Are your hard disks indentified correctly in your POST screen? (POST = Power On Self Test)
Can you clarify or elaborate on this; "There is nothing in any of the drives." How did you conclude this?
Boot with a 98 or 98SE bootdisk. If you don't have one you can get one here. (If you download this file, don't save it on a floppy. You have to click on the file to create a startup disk on one of your floppies.)
Choose No CDROM support. When you get the A:\> prompt, type in;
fdisk
choose option 4 - Display partition information. Post back exactly what it says.
