Hi koko,,,that may as well be written in japanese for me matey...which one do I need and what do I do with it?

lol...Just treat me like a retard.
 
xp retard is back......

ok,created the boot up disks,,rebooted with #1 in,,,,asked for# 2.........then ...........
file \ntkrnlmp.exe could not be loaded error code 7


So what does this mean and what can I do to format my HD....................HELPPPPP
 
I was hoping Fujitsu had a hard drive setup utility that you could use, they don't. Let me know what file system you have (fat32 or ntfs)... that will determine whether or not you need to use Fdisk to prepare your drive before formatting it.
 
Open windows explorer, right click on your drive> properties. On that window it will tell you what you're running.
 
WAY cool... that's easy. Go here (same link koko provided) and download the Win 98se.exe file and follow the in instructions for creating the boot disk. Boot to that disk and at the command prompt type in "Format C:" w/o the quotes.
 
change setting in setup when you turn on your computer to boot from cd first the restart with xp cd in your cd drive and re install it will ask you were you wont to put it and weather to format

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
