you'll have to take out the HDD and copy install files to it from a desktop if you have no bootable CD or FDD. or if you have a bootable FDD you can setup the HDD as FAT32 and copy the files via FDD partition HDD C=9GB D=the rest (FAT32) RAR up a small OS like win98 copy to HDD via FDD (takes a LONG time) install that, then copy XP files to hdd in win 98 reboot from FDD and install XP from the partition.... NOTE: you may want to keep a small (100MB) ghost image of win 98 (for future rescue) on the D partition... from memory L1 has no real PCMCIA support in dos as far as I know (if you can get a LAN card working in dos, that will be faster) from memory L1 firewire and USB are not supported fully in dos. just my opinions... might be a better way -Brett David VanHorn wrote: > Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2003 20:55:46 -0500 > From: David VanHorn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: L1 Scrub > > I finally had a virus get past Eudora somehow. > > I got a boot sector virus that tells me every time I boot that my copy of windows is > illegal.
