| 65771 | 2002-07-26 13:40:00 | How can I access the partition with win98 on a partition on my hard drive if my system dies. I have a microsoft sticker on the side of my computer with the serial num on it but i never received any documentation on what to do. I also nave not got a recovery cd because i dont need one apparently. any help would be gratefully appreciated as i dont want to have to take it to the shop when i could do it myself. | gem1n1 (1221) | ||
