might need to sign up for a different forum but lets see what happens here:
im havin a problem with my windows machine (the dell i am going to be selling)
i get a few errors upon startup:
"Diskette drive 1 seek failure"
a few moments later:
"Primary hard disk drive 1 not found"
a few moments later:
"Strike the F1 key to continue, F2 to run the setup utility"
if i hit f1 the computer just boots up...f2 brings me to all the bios settings or whatever they are called "system setup" i think
once booted up it recognizes my a:/ drive as a 5 1/4" floppy drive
and it does not recognize that i have 2 cdroms
does not boot from cdrom or floppy or anything
specs:
Dell dimension 8100
P4 1.5 ghz
256 ram
WinME
thanks
