Ok I need a bit of a dummies guide to doing this.
Windows XP has been installed on a machine that isnt capable of running it (ie hardwares a bit poo)
This replaced windows 98.
It wasnt me who did it before anyone moans!
No obvioulsy the machine will not start XP, it crashes and it only starts in safe mode- which runs like an aged dog, and being XP the PC no longer has MS DOS on it so it wont start the installer for 98 or millennium.
I need to format the drive to start from scratch and install either 98 or ME again and cant do this without DOS (either installing, or formating), unless there is a way around this and CMD.EXE wont allow a disk format or the installer to work
Can someone who is a bit more PC technical than I am help me please?
It most likely it will be windows ME that goes on as this is the oldest software that will work on this machine compatible with Sky Broadband.
