Totally hosed my sys!

Pushed my P4S533 too far and got a hard disk write error - rebooted and got a win.com not found (win98). Tried re-installing win98 and did a million fixes resulting in quite a few c:\dir0000## directories which appears to be my former windows directory.

Windows will not find any new devices. In Device Manager I just see a few system resources - no Plug and Play. Tried flashing the BIOS but it didn't help and I didn't think it would because the OS on my secondary drive, which I am using now, found devices just fine.

Anyone have any ideas about how to get my sys back to the point where it finds PnP devices?

Thanks!

Maybe you could place your hd (slave) in another system, then retrieve your data.

Then Reformat & do a fresh install.

If all else fails.

Good luck
