Computer fails to boot
by Richard
(Kansas)
Monte,
This is a friend's computer.
While trying to boot up an older computer, I get a message that the system driver files are corrupt or not available.
Naturally, he does NOT have a back of his system.
Cannot boot into Safe Mode
I have attempted to run Repair from the OS system disk, no help when the help screen appears it request to push the letter r, and insert the floppy in drive A. Since he has no back-up there is no information on a floppy to insert into the drive.
I could not find an answer in your e-book Computer Repair Manual.
I could just say forget it and copy files, then reformat the hard drive. I have a feeling the hard drive may be on it's way out!
Any suggestions?
Thank for your time.
