BTW, Coyote Ugly is a great film.... 🙂

I'm busy sending all my fav websites to this computer right now.

BTW, when I boot up, it says I'm missing some files, some .dll stuff I don't understand. sorry, totally no clue..... 🙁 😕

Did you delete anything yet?

It COUL😄 be time to check the boot from CD option if there are no DOS CD crivers there

No, did not delete anything. Was checking for the ability to reformat and reload, like we discussed earlier.

Am still moving my fav web sites to this computer. geez, I must have several hundred, since I'm doing it one at a time.

Wanted to check to see if I can safely reformat, when I'm done moving all my fav web sites here, and reload.

If you're around when I'm done moving all my fav web sites, then I'll venture to reformatting/reloading once we're both satisfied I won't self destruct

I'm not moving/deleting anything until you tell me it's ok.

h e l l o 😕

Sorry, Keo, been talking to Edna. I'm no RC, I know... but what;s going on now? I'll try and help.

we're still where I can't access D drive when booting up by floppy. I have some missing files as well as having an old Win95. RC went to look through his stuff to update me. I'm still moving my fav websites from old computer to this one. Am on lunch break now. going to move laundry over in one minute, then I'll be back.

BTW, Ush, would you ask Edna if she's come across any interesting avatars for me?

I'll ask her tomorrow.

Ok, Keo, that means you have no DOS drivers for your CD drive, and it is these I think RC is looking for.

What's this about missing dll files? Is this happening every time you boot up, and for how long?

I think I get one error message everytime I boot up.

ok, laundry moved over. Since RC hasn't come back yet, I'm going over to the old computer to move more fav websites this way. Didn't realize I had saved so much good stuff. Alot of it is research/reference material.

Back in abit to check in. 😄

When did the missing dll message thing start, and is it actually causing any problems apart from the error message?

RC did one better than that, RC made Keo a Universal Boot Disk that should run pretty much ANY CD.

OK, it's just a Windows 98 Boot disk, but it will do the job to get the system running so Keo can install Win 95.

Ok, Keo, this is what ya do.[list=1]
[*]Either format a floppy or get a new floppy. If you are formatting it must be done on a Windows 95/98 PC, NOT on NT or 2000
[*]The file A.exe is a zipfile, I send you a PM with the location of the file for you to download.
[*]With the blacnk disk in the floppy of your PC, run A.exe
[*]It will ask to unzip to A😬 Click Unzip
[*]Use the newly created disk to boot the PC you're rebuilding
[*]It should give you three options, the top one is Boot with CDROM Support, choose this.
[*]Once you get the prompt, put in your Win95 CD
[*]Type "E:" (Not quotes)
[*]Type DIR
[*]See Listing
[*]Tell me I'm great!!! (This better work now or I'll look dumb)

today is not my day. now my printer on this comp won't print. the print command isn't reaching, and therefore nothing is happening.

ok, now I hafta find RC's PM to me.

Computers give you days like that some times

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Quit laughing at me, RC.
😛 😛 😛

Ok, I found your PM, printed it out (worked that time), downloaded it to my hard drive and to a floppy disk.

I'll try to print out these instructions again. BRB

ok, I printed out these instructions. Seems like the page numbers on KMC don't match up with printer page numbers.

I'll close down the old computer and try these. Are you going to be around abit longer, RC? I know it's getting late in your time zone.

Ush, I'm sending you a PM. Please check your PMs in one minute; I hafta type it. thanks.

Well, I'll be around for a little while, but... just for the social bit, really...

RC, I'm heading over to the old computer.

RCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC, don't leave me.

Ush, RC isn't online now. If you want to leave, it's ok. If this doesn't work, then I'll hafta wait until later. I'll post my results anyhow, and anyone, including RC, can leave more instructions here, in case we all miss each other with my time zone difference. 🙁
