For some       reason, I cannot boot into the internal hard drive at all because I do not       know what key to push to bypass the floppy drive. I am still very novice at       this, plus the fact is I        do not have an owner's manual for this computer. Can someone give me some tips       on how to perform this action?       >       > Your assistance and advice are duly appreciated.

If there is no floppy       inserted, then it boots on the hard drive.       If your HD doesn't boot, it looks like there is some problem...       Do you have the original disk for the MegaSTE (it contains a tool, AHDI,       to install the boot sector on the HD, format it, verify it, etc) ?              Guillaume.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
