I am having problems with a pc that is supposed to be bereft of an OS.
When I boot I get: "BOOT DISK FAILURE. INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS
ENTER."
So I put a Windows XP(HE) in the CD ROM drive and I still get the same
message. Can anyone tell me what I am to do next?
The system is as follows:
*************************
Pentium SCSI System 450Mhz Tower
********************************
PIII 450 MHz system.
Nobilus 5 bay ((3) 5 1/4, (2) 3 1/2) mid-tower case
Asus P2B-F main board
128MB PC100 SDRAM
Diamond Viper video card
Creative AWE ISA sound card
Adaptec AHA-2940U2W SCSI card
Intel (10/100) PCI NIC
1.44MB floppy drive
Iomega Jaz (2 GB), 52X CD-ROM drive
4.3GB Seagate SCSI harddrive (with removable tray).
Thanks.
