Re-config of comp & DOS question
« on: August 13, 2005, 03:43:50 PM »
I have stripped the HD of a computer, and now am in the process of installing 98 SE.  

The problem is, the computer is not seeing D: at all.
It does see, a:, b:, and c:.  

I have looked at this site for the past few hours in hopes of looking at other posts.

Can someone recommend a proper protocol with setting up this computer.

Thanks

If the disk has been formatted, where is it that you see the a:, b:, c: drives? Are you referring to the BIOS?

You may need to get a boot floppy from Boot Disk that will give you CD functionality. At that point you should have enough of DOS to allow you to install Win98.

Hope this helps. 8)
