OK, so I've made a big mistake. I have an old pentium 133
that I'm giving to someone & wanted to wipe the hard
drive & re-install windows. Problem - I re-formatted the
hard drive before making sure I have everything I need to
re install. I have the original windows cd that came with
the computer plus various harware installation disks &
drivers but the windows 95 boot disk seems to be
corrupted & I have no other boot disk so.......HELP!!!

With a completely blank hard drive can someone give me
somke help on what to do to get windows re-installed from
the cd.

Thanks
A
