jimbo74 · 08-14-2005, 08:27 PM

ok so i fried my hd... somehow the i/o subsytem corrupted and nothing worked.... i talked to howard, and he said i need a new hd.... fast forward... got a used hd at a local place, its a maxtor 2.0gb

anyways, formatted did all that stuff.... i start to run windows, and it somewhat works, windows does its mini load thing and has a progress meter with a percentage # shown.... just after 100%, i get an error window

Message SU 995035

WHat os are you running.

i am not currently running an os.. i am trying to load win98. the c drive is jumpered and setup properly as partitioned for being the primary master

also, i have used 2 different versions of windows 98 and also different cd drives to read them, and i get the same error message each time... is it possible my floppy a drive start disk is corrupt? if the start disk is corrupt, what can i do?

i dont think the start disk would be corrput. Maybe its a bad harddrive? The HD is completely reformatted correct?

then i would have to go with a bad boot cd. didnt you say you had 2 copies? its unlikely that both wouldbe bad. ALso, Is the hd on one computer, meaning, there is no other slave on the comp?
