DISK BOOT FAILURE - Help !!!
My wifes machine runs Windows 98 and started up recently with DISK BOOT
FAILURE - INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER. I tried inserting the system disk in the CD but the system would not read the CD. It went straight to the A: drive after not detecting several items on the opening screen. I hit the delete key when I rebooted again and got the BIOS program. The default was to read the CD first, then the C:disk, then the A: drive. I change it and saved it to another option, then change change it back, just to be sure it was OK. However, nothing changed. I did some reading and downloaded a Boot Disk for windows 98 SE from Bootdisk.com. When I booted off of the A: drive the machine booted up but I was not able to see any drive but the A: drive. Doesanyone have any sugestions?? Thanks in advance! |
