Win ME

[Evo7]

Does any know how to install Win Me in a new computer? I mean what to type in the DOS.

assuming you've changed directory to your cd drive, then setup! :frown:

 

[nnnyyy]

just use a startup disk, enable cdrom support, and type setup.

1. Make sure you have all your DRIVERS especially your modem &amp; video card also save your ISP account setting too

2. set your partition size using
a:\>fdisk

3. format your HD
a:\>format C:/q

4. You are ready (change F to whatever is your CD Rom Drive)
F:\>setup.exe


Windows ME, most people say MS 98SE is a much better choice but maybe you have a later build than all of us thats much better cause ME sucks.

Small note on the formatting.

format c: /q

The /q (that's &quot;Quickformat&quot😉 will not work, unless the drive is already formatted. As it is not formatted after FDISK-ing it, you will simply have to format c: without the /q switch.

What /q does is in essence overwrite the file-information tables with 0's - it can't do that unless the drive is properly formatted beforehand.
