|[...]If your Laptop won't boot [to] a CD[,] then this won't work

It seems unlikely that Steve's idea won't work on a floppy-less computer, but
if that *is* the case (and you're not into digging into the innards of your computer)
--or if the only bootable disk you have is a floppy, this one should do it:
http://www.google.com/search?q=How.to.make.a.bootable.flash-drive
It requires a blank thumbdrive, a bootable disk,
and a working computer that can handle that bootable disk.
It appears that if Steve's *bootable CD* notion isn't apt in your case,
then any way you slice it you will need a second (working) computer.
...and it sounds like "phdisk" is a proprietary utility in BIOS.
Have you tried typing
PHDISK (Enter)
(I doubt it will gain you anything; I'm just curious now.)
