Hi,
I have sucessfully cleaned my hard drives of literally everything
(OPERATING SYSTEM AND ALL!) as I prepare to give a computer away to a
charitable organization. Now, I am trying to reinstall the operating
system (NT 4.0 Workstation) from the CD and having some difficulties.
So, I boot the machine using the CD. At some point in the porcess it
prompts me to "Please insert the compact disk labeled Windows NT
workstation CD-ROM in the CD drive and press enter." First of all, the
CD is ALREADY in the drive (otherwise I couln't have even gotten this
far). But, in any case, when I press "enter" nothing happens. So, I am
stuck at this point.
Some possible useful info:
My machine is a gateway. SO, the NT CDROM is not dirext from
Microopsoft, i.e., it is an OEM CD-ROM
Thanks
!!
