Hi,
Got an older computer to play with, and hopefully make usefull for someone who cannot afford to get themselves one.
It appears to be running a Linux system although I am unsure.
I booted it with a boot disk and I was given the message "Windows 98 has detected that Drive C does not contain a valid FAT or FAT32 partition." How do I partition it?
Then I attempted to Format it, and got "Format not supported on drive C:".
Then Scan Disk tells me that all is ok with the A: drive.
When I asked for a display of Partition Info, I got the following information, which doesnt look familiar to me:
"Current Fixed Drive 1
1. Type: Non-Dos MBytes: 102 2% usage
2. Type: Non-Dos MBytes 3757 91%
3. Type: Non-Dos MBytes 259 6%"
Look familiar to anyone? What step should I take next, there is nothing I care to save on the hard drive.
Thanks in advance.
Dianne
