Answer» I was given a toshiba satellite 2595 xdvd. It won't boot up, as soon as i turn it on it says ( invalid system disk )
( replace the disk and press any key)
Any ideas? :-/Is there a CD or FLOPPY in a drive? If not, it sounds like the laptop needs reinstalling. No big deal if you have the disks.There are no discs in it ANYWHERE. I tried to install windows xp on it but i get the same message, i can"t even get it to bring up DOS.Thanks for the help though.So you've tried a DOS boot disk? Have you set the BIOS to boot from the floppy drive?Try a Win98 book floppy. If you can get into Dos from that, I think it's a bad HARD drive. I had one that crashed on my old MICRON lappy and it did the same thing to me.[highlight]Self extracting bootdisk image
Boot CD ISO image[/highlight]It is a bad hard drive. PERHAPS that was why it was given away?
