50652 2002-05-25 03:02:00 This comes up on friend's comp. after Bios loads, checks memory,HDDs (one of which ius CD drive) then freeze up and the above message. Can get into Bios but not the menu for safe mode/DOS etc. Anybody got any ideas? Win 98 on old 133Mz processor 49(?)megs mem and 1.5G HD. Trying to bypass using F1 gets 'system disk error, insert another disk'. Guest (0)

Try going in to the BIOS and disabling the on-board COM2; port.
