Hi All.....the following message was posted to me on a non MS news
group. I wondered if any of you could help because I absolutely cannot
remember how to access the MS news groups in toto.....or as a
newbie......the link one clicks on to get to the MS news groups.
Any thoughts?? Or a link?? I guess I could post it to one of the 98
groups.
Tks.....Heather

Heather,
I've got a problem. Started a week or so again.
Win 98
On boot, error messages,
Occurred in this sequence.
Missing or corrupted display.sys c:\windows\command
Missing or corrupted system.dat c:\windows\command
they each happened several times, but I managed to get it to boot by
turning
off, then back on, each time.
This a.m.
Missing or corrupted config.sys c:\windows\command
Edit line 1 and 2
I have 3 config.sys files in various locations.
The most recent is dated 2005 inc:\windows\command
There's only 2 lines in them.
I don't know what to edit???
My gut says that area of the hard drive is corrupted, but not sure.
If I rename the file, then make a copy with correct name, will the new
one
go back to the corrupted area?
or somewhere else I should be looking at config.sys?
