Windows Forum / Windows 95 / May 2004Reformatting issues
I recently reformatted a friends dinosaur IBM Aptiva and once running the recovery CD-Rom, it asks for the Win95 Boot floppy. I found a reliable floppy disk and program, but the computer is not reading the data. HELP!! > I recently reformatted a friends dinosaur IBM Aptiva and > once running the recovery CD-Rom, it asks for the Win95 > Boot floppy.

HELP!! you can download a windows floppy from www.bootdisk.com the file you download can create a floppy on a blank disk when you run it I did that, it didn't work, the machine was not reading the data. I dont' know if it's an A drive error or if it's the motherboard. The info on the disk was from www.bootdisk.com. I checked the plugs and cords, everything is working properly. I was also thinking of making a copy of Windows Installer 2.0 Redistributable for Windows 95, 98, and Me. Is this advisable? >-----Original Message----- > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > >. > I did that, it didn't work, the machine was not reading the > data.
