Urgent Computer Help!
 

My parents computer doesn't start up. I was in the process of installing Norton Anti-virus and I had to many programs running, i guess, well the computer froze so I did the CONTROL+ALT+DELETE thing and now after it restarted goes to a black screen and says "non-system disk or disk error..." But there is no disk in the drive. What can I do? The last thing I wanna do on my sunday afternoon is reformat a computer.

HELP GUYS!!

Forget the above post....Now does anyone know how to save all my favorites, so I can take them to a different computer?

dunno if you can just copy them (i would think you can), but the folder is located at

C:\WINDOWS\Favorites

Yes you can just copy them. Sounds like you really screwed your operating system and need a reinstall..sorry man

If you have a Emergency Boot Disk (email me if you need instructions), boot the computer with the floppy, and at the DOS prompt, type:

SYS C:

This is of course assuming that you have Win 95/98/ME.

If you have NT/2000/XP, you need to use the system disks to recover.

It sounds like you blew away your boot block, if you are lucky, that is all the damage there is.

Qustions: Email me
