| 21846 | 2001-10-18 09:26:00 | Ok, you need a boot disk, but I recommend you take up the offer of that kind person above and mail them (to register interest), as reinstalling is a long (and sometimes complicated) process. | Guest (0) | ||
| 21847 | 2001-10-18 09:33:00 | This site has a lot of info www.windowsreinstall.com If your win95 is on cd, the win95 startup disk does not have cdrom support, this can be overcome by downloading a 95 bootup disk with cdrom support. If you have win95 on floppies you don't need to worry about this. |

Then boot from it, 'fdisk' ... follow instructions, 'format c: /u' cd <cdrom letter> (eg 'cd d:', 'setup' ... and follow the yellow brick road. |
