I have had this computer (compaq presario 2240) for QUITE sometime now. I havent
used it in YEARS though. i pulled it out of one of my storage units(as well as all
my other computers) and this one is the only one that is giving me problems. here
is the problem i am going through, in as good of detail as i can get:
i start up the computer, it starts loading, then the "windows 98" screen pops up
for about 2 seconds then goes to DOS mode with an error message that states, word
for word,:
The following file is missing or corrupted: WIN.COM
The followin file is missing or corrupted: COMMAND.COM
Type the name of the Command Interpreter (e.g. \windows\command.com)
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE help me. I have tried EVERYTHING i know about, except re-installing
windows 98, because i dont have the '98 disc anymore. I tried installing XP but
the memory on the compaq is not big enough so it would not install!
