Invalid System Disk
In an effort to open up space on one of our win98se machines my children
(they go back to school Monday) started to delete things "they" thought were not needed. I'm not totally sure what it was they deleted but I now have the following: The System: Pentium w/MMX 233 mhz 92 ram win98se When I try to boot up we get the following. "Invalid System Disk." I tried to get it going with a win98 boot disk and read in the help file that if I saw the error above that I should run "SYS C:" I did this and it reported back that the "System Transferred". I then shut the computer off (with the power switch), took out the boot disk, and attempted to restart the computer only to get this: "c:\" and when attempting in safe mode this: "Windows is bypassing your startup files". I have also run Scandisk (off of the boot disk) and it found no errors on "C". Is it possible to get this unit running again? Any help would be appreciated, Robert |
