i found my prehistoric magitronic laptop from like 1997 or 1998. something close to that and i decided to hook everything up and start it. as it begin starting, a message came up truism:



Floppy Disk Fault - Insert Valid Boot Disk



something of that matter and i hold no clue what that means or what i inevitability. can someone please help?


Answer:

Your floppy drive may own gone bad, but first point you could try is making a new floppy disk near your operating system.



Did your old laptop hold Windows 95, 98?

You can download an old operating system boot disk from here http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm...



Other than trying to flog you a new laptop, this is commonly the first step a PC repair shop would take.



Hope it help.
Whew! Good luck with that hunting trip!



I cogitate I would take it to a repair shop and see how much they would charge to install a modern operating system?
