BOOT DISK FAILURE - ENTER SYSTEM DISK
:( I have a Pentium II 350 MHz w/4 mb harddrive I received from my
employer but had to be completely reformatted due to licensing. I purchased a full version of Window Home Version XP only to find out when I put the CD into the drive to load on the computerI got the same error BOOT DISK FAILURE ENTER SYSTEM DISK :( I do not have an emergency boot disk for this computer -- is there any help you can give me. Trying to get a workable system together so young grandson (3) can learn how to use the computer and access learning software. :) Your assistance is greatly apprecated! :lol: kv ============== Posted through www.HowToFixComputers.com/bb - free access to hardware troubleshooting newsgroups. |
You need to change the first boot device in the BIOS, to boot from the CD
