hi,
i have a prob with my other PC. i am not an expert at computers. these are the things i gathered up about the PC...
hardrive-samsung SV1022D
memory-32768
pentium 3
700 mhz
atapi cd-rom 52X max
os-microsoft 98
anyways my prob is that when i turn the computer on it asutomatically goes to the windows 98 startup menu and gives me 5 options-
normal, safe mode, logged, command prompt, safe mode command promt.
it also saysd underneath that-warning:windows has detected a registory error, slect command promt only and run scanreg.
if u choose command prompt it just says the following file is miswsing or corrupted "c:/samsung/SSCDROM.sys". then...nothing. press anything and nothing happenes,the only option is to reboote the computer again.same with safe mode, logged. however if u choose safe mode command promt it promts c:/ and lets u tyoe something. this is the only option that lets you.
i either wanmt tpo fix this problem somehow or reformat my hardrve or reinsta;ll windows, however how would i go about re-installing windows or reformatting my hardrive if i cant even boot it up?
btw, i dont have a win98 boot up disk.
any help u guys could gve me would be very much appreciated.
thanks in advance...
