Hi all
been lurking for a while and now have a bit of a problem..
I have inherited an upgraded 486 with 12 meg ram and 1 gig HD and I cant get
the CD to work.
It had a virus so I formated the hd and tried to reload win95 but it can't
see the cd player,
I tried to connect it as a slave but to no avail the thing wouldn't start at
all..
I've tried the bios and all it does is look for a slave drive and wont see
the CD at all..
The CD ROM is connected to to the sound card.. It's a creative CD rom and a
sound blaster 16 board..
I guess I'm asking what do I do to get the thing to reconise the CD rom so I
can load win 95..
I have built 3 pentium systems but this old thing has me stumped and its
only 5 yrs old
