Hello Folks,
I hope you can help with an unusual problem.Until recently I used a IBM365 laptop.Explorer in Win98 got corrupted and as it didn`t have a floppy I was unable to reload Windows.I now have a 600e with floppy so I`m trying to use this to reload Windows on my old hard drive so I can recover my data files.My old 365 had a English(UK) keyboard whereas the 600e has a US keyboard.
Amazingly if you configure a US keyboard to run Uk spec you lose the " \ ".So when I boot the start up disk and select CD-ROM support I can access the D drive but without " \ " I cant get to Win98 setup.If I start up in DOS comand prompt I get the \ but I can only access C: & A:
Is there a command I can type after the A prompt which will boot up the Win start up facility?
