Title: Drive A
Post by: Jeff Haynes on August 05, 2004, 06:03:39 PM

I bought a used Packerd Bell and Erased and Formated the Hard Drive and when I went to install Windows 98 back on I could not.  I now get a error message when I turn it on saying that Incorrect Drive A Type - Run Setup
What does that mean and the light on the drive stays on all the time.  I also cannot get anything to boot from the CD-ROM.  Please help!
