Hello all
I feel silly that this happened to me since I thought I knew better.........
while copying Windows95 cab files to the harddrive using DOS, the computer was frozen for more then 3 minutes. I have done this exact procedure more times then I remember but never had a computer stop like this. the lights were on but there was no activity, and the cursor just blinked. tried ctl-alt-del but no response. turned the machine of and then back on, and it would not boot. error message said "non-system disk". used a boot disk to get in then did a DIR on the C drive. the only thing listed was the C:\WIN95 directory I had just created and inside just the files that had copied over before I turned the machine on and off. I have no idea what I did wrong.
since this wasn't supposed to be a complicated manuever, I don't have a backup of the client's data. I'm hesitant to try anything else myself. can anyone please suggest a way for me to recover any data on the harddrive? TIA
