i just updated windows 98 on my ibm thinkpad 600e. Now it wont start up properly and says invalid disk replace the disk and press any key when i turn it on, thing is i dont have the disk anymore what can i do?
l dont think u have a bootable like me a dutcho have said m8 if u had u only have to change settings to cd first and boot with cd in and start from cd and all the menus r on screen , have installed to hundreds of lappy and pc 's and without a bootable cd its not going to work , download an iso image instead of a rar or zip m8...(and more driver on 2000 windows on)Dutcho said:Go into the setup on the lappy and change the boot option to cd first, then boot up with your 98 cd (if it's the bootable version) and format the lappy and reinstall.
You can get xp to run on that I did.
how did u write your iso to disc m8 and have to put it in your other pc to see if it autostartsX-PAC said:cant install 2000 not enough ram it was an iso the i unrared it, do u know where i can get a good 98 bootable cd?
u cant unrar an iso image , the iso could be one file ie windows.iso and u have to use copy from image with your burning software , have u got neroX-PAC said:no it doesrnt auto run or work itll scome u pwith a windows 98 screen and if i click on something it says insert cd when its alredy in there, i downladed the iso and un rared it on my pc then wrote the files to cd.
