AFTER REBOOT

[ROB.K]

HEY GUYS, I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY COMPUTER AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO SO HERE GOES, I GOT A REBOOT DISK AND REBOOT IT AND THEN IT COMES UP TO THE THREE OPTIONS BUT I CANT CHOOSE ANY OF THE OPTIONS BECAUSE I DONT HAVE A WINDOWS 98 DISK SO THEN I TRIED GOING THROUGH SAFE MODE BY CLICKING ON F5 BUT IT GOES STRAIGHT TO THIS A:>

CAN ANYONE HELP ME OR GIVE ME ADVICE ON HOW TO SET UP MY COMPUTER WITHOUT THE CD ROM OR IF I CAN DOWNLOAD ONE

THANX

do you mean download boot disk http://www.bootdisk.com/

when you pressed f5 on bootup into windows you should be able to select safe mode rather than command prompt. What happens when you boot normaly, is windows installed?

LET ME GUESSS... YOU GOT AN WIN98 STARTUP DISK. YOU DONT HAVE AN WINDOWS INSTALL CD. YOU BOOT YOUR PC USING THE STARTUP FLOPPY. FROM HERE ON THERE ARE TWO WAYS POSSIBLE:

1. YOU HAVE AN WIN98 INSTALATION COPY SOMEWHERE ON YOUR HDD. IF THATS RIGHT, SELECT 1ST OR 2ND OPTION ON THE STARTUP MENU, THEN NAVIGATE TO THE FOLDER WHERE THE WIN98 INSTALATION IS LOCATED (I.E. IF ITS IN C:\WIN98 ,TYPE "CD C:\WIN98") THEN TYPE SETUP.EXE. IF EVERYTHING IS RIGHT, IN A FEW MOMENTS YOULL BE ABLE TO USE YOUR MOUSE AGAIN

2. YOU DONT HAVE THE WIN98 INSTALATION FILES NOWHERE ON YOUR HDD... SORRY PAL, OUT OF LUCK. THE FLOPPY YOU HAVE IS NOT ENOUGH TO INSTALL WINDOWS. TRY DIGGING A BIT AROUND DA NET
