Boot Help Please

My hard drive is clean. Im trying to reinstall windows. When I put the win98 boot disk in and try to boot the pc I keep getting "non system disk please reinsert disk and hit a key". I have made more win98 boot disk and still get the same thing. I chanced the floppy hardware thinking it was that but no luck still same thing. any help please!

 

If you have changed your floppy drive, the next things are possibly an incorrectly-connected interface (ribbon) cable or an incorrectly-connected power supply cable. If these are not it, then all that's left is a possibly bad floppy controller (main board).

 

Is the floppy drive first in the boot sequence in your BIOS setup? Just a thought. KW1

 

Hey..if you are installing Win98 why are you using a disk ? Y arent you using the Windows98 installation CD ?


Just a thought.

 

Sounds like you might be just downloading the boot disk file and saving it to a floppy insteading of expanding it.......

Take a look at the listing of files you have on the floppy disk from a working computer........
