PLEASE!!! HELP!! I'm so lost!

[Dyngoe]

Hi y'all,

I need help quick. I'm booting win98se on my "new" PAckard Bell P133. I've installed windows, but each time it fails each time it restarts. It goes through the hardware diagnostics and even flashes Win98 startup screen, but then shows a command line of Easy-Bios and asks me to state where Command.com is. I am really confused. Please help.

As Always,
D

Dyngoe,
try to edit the CONFIG.SYS file: insert this line

SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM

or

SHELL=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.COM

did you by chance format the drive, if so did you do format c:/s to copy the system files. or just format c: if you just formated the c: you need to copy the system files just put the bootable disk in drive a: and type; sys c: that should copy the files over.
