I'm pretty resistant to change myself, but not that far. Try booting up your computer with a Win98 startup disk with CD-ROM support. Then insert your Win98 disk and try to reinstall it.my cd-rom is not working right now because of what i did. the last time i screwed up i did something a lot worse,ityped in delete*.* and everything went on that command but the person i got to look at it took about 10 seconds with a few key strokes and magically everything came back. that person lives in west virginia and now i live in floridathe magic keys like f8..ctrl f5......returns back to camalot for lottery i don't know if that key stroke will work or if you are just pulling my chain but right now i would try anything that might help and if not i have a good sense of humor thanx mikedid you format the c:drive......or fdisk it..........or use the del c:...or any other commands....if you are in win3.1 locate the winfile...does it display your files...there were 6 fd that i installedalso i can see the files but i can't really access them and the computer is at a friends that is <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/going-1008806" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GOING">GOING</a> to try to remove the hd out of the tower and install it into his computer to see if we can access it that way, then we might be able to copy the files then format the computer and reload 98 back into it so we don't lose everything. fingers crossedif you locate the winfile its important to file it and you may stand a chance or restoring your files and win98 the win 3.1 do a search for the winfile is there somewhere. wherever you loaded 3.1 to c:\windows ....c:\ etc......it bring up at list of what installed...and then locate windows folder /options/cabs/setup....are there important files on this pc...<br/>...type dir at the dos prompt..this will <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/also-373387" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ALSO">ALSO</a> tell you what is in your pc...?not really sure if i can do what you say but when my friend returns with the tower i will show him all the info you have given me and maybe he can work this problem out for me. if i need further asst. i will log back on while he is here and take it from there.thanx so much for your help and i will reply back if things work out.thanx again mikeall win9x systems have the winfile....and another knock for woexp..they dont..another fault....windupxp has.. make it more harder for the users to understand...thats m$ofts game... win3.1/win9x/winxp................... a list soon of win9x against winxp recovery procedures is not good.... is the future or m$oft...profit or progress i chose the latter.....</p></body></html>
