        I have a strange problem.  I have an old 486-100.  I was changing out the
hard drives in it and when I went to reboot I got this error message:

        "Invalid system disk. Remove disk and press any key to continue."

        The only problem is.......there isn't any disk in the floppy drive.

        The computer and I have argued extensively over this.  I keep telling it
there IS NO DISK IN THERE!!

        And the computer answers back, "Yes there is.....Invalid system disk.
Remove disk and press any key to continue."

        We seem to be at an impasse.

        Anybody encountered this problem before?
