![]() My laptop just died. I do not have my floppy drive with me.
Can anybody point me to some instructions on how to make a bootable Win2K CDRom for repairing this? I have access to another Win2K machine and a non-bootable install disk. We managed to make a normal boot disk but when I try to run any command, it looks to the A: drive by default. Any help is appreciated. Format c: is not an option. ![]() |

Find a actual bootdisk that boots? Like off a CD-ROM drive. Otherwise you are kind of screwed.

you can't 'make' a bootable windows cd, you can only make a 'ghost' of another hdd and boot from that, it 'might' work. gl.
