    Unhappy Boots to C:\

    I bought an IBM 390X from Ebay and need to know how to load win98SE onto it. It boots to C now. Do I need to get drivers for the CD Rom? Thanks

    Installing W98 on TP 390X:

    There is a lot of other info available on your model there for you.
    If you think AOL sucks just try MSN to see really bad service.

    Think Pad 390X document page

    Clcik F1 to enter BIOS

    Scroll to Startup, Press [ENTER]
    Select Power On
    Select Network

    Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most

    Kat,

    for trying this you should have a working CD-ron drive, so the driver off course should be installed.

    In your BIOS see where your boot-sequence is defined and set the option for CD-ROM at the top of the list. You might have to set a check mark in front of it. Be sure the CD-Rom is the only one to be "checked" (so remove the check from C).

    After installation be sure to set the values back to the way they were before...

    Hope it works!
