I have a 6 year Compaq with windows ME. When I try to start it- i get invalid sysytem disk on the screen. When I use the Windows ME start up disk, I can do a scandisk which says everything on c drive is ok. I tried a registry restore- still no success. Because I can do scan disk and registry rstore, can I assume the problem is not the hard drive? I'd hate to replace it...but am at wits end. I can only start up with the start up disk--- unable to start in safe mode.
Thanks. :-?
