Default Anyway to temporary boot-up without the Win98 Rescue Disk?

I moved a few system files out of the C-drive by mistake and forgot to move
them back before I hit the restart button.... and my TP765CD cannot boot up
from the hard drive (as expected). Anyway to get pass the "non-system disk"
error message so that I can get into safe mode or something to move the
files back to the C-Drive? I don't have the rescue disk either.

Download the appropriate Windows Startup floppy disk from www.bootdisk.com. Boot
to it and do what you have to.
