HEEELP!
I was burning a Win 98 CD (Legitimately) and unfortunately i left the cd in my laptop during restart...
most of the setup had completed but i fortunately canceled it before it could format the drive and install Win 98.
It detected my windows XP home Edition SP2 OEM Edition as a "non MS-DOS OS" and as I took the cd out the computer cannot boot from HD. Claiming 'Not A Valid System Disk, Please insert and press any key to continue' OWTTE. Win XP Wont load, Linux Live CD Will.
I tried my install disk under the recovery console but it brought up boot MS-DOS using A: as the subject Drive.
So I assume that it has replace the D: Drive To A: and Caused My OS not To Work. I Have important files on my computer, and many programs I cannot afford to lose these.
Please can you help?
