Thanks in advance,
This is my first post on the intel section of overclockers forums. I am trying to build an extremely basic system for my girlfriends family. Now my problems lies with formating and reinstalling windows. The System in question is a Dell Dimension XPS T600r. It has a 600Mhz PIII slot 1 processor and an mobo based on a intel chipset. Now the Harddrive is new so I am trying to format the drive. Everything is detected in the Bios but, I place an 98 Windows startup disk in the A drive it reads (i/o error). Now the floppy is working, and the floppy cable is in ok. Can you tell me a shortkey to get a command prompt up like a:/. On my system it is F8 to bring up the command prompt.....
Thanks for your help.!!!
Dont worry I've built PCs before......
