Answer» We acquired a Fujitsu Lifebook 535xt (?) and it currently has no os on it. Before me it had Win98 and when I tried to upgrade to XP or even Win2K it wont ALLOW me to do &*#@ . These are the steps thus far I have taken. While 98 was on it (& it might still be on the possessed machine) I used the start up disk to start os. I copied the sys command to the c:drive which then boots up system and then the system begins it eternal (and terminal) 'updating system configurations' routine. HOW DO I GET WINXP OR 2K ON THIS MACHINE VIA DOS? :-?You are making this much harder than necessary. If you have a bootable CDROM drive you make it the FIRST boot device, then just insert it and RESTART the machine then follow the prompts.
If you have a non-bootable CDROM drive, then you can use the APPROPRIATE operating system boot FLOPPIES (4 for WIn2000 and I think 6 for XP) and then it will load up your CDROM drive and finish the install from there.
What of the above are you not doing?
