Again! I arrive top bring news of another computer problem. Rejoice and laugh at my ways!
But I truly hate to keep posting my problems here (no other boards I go to can help), but I have two laptops, both the same kind (NEC Versa 4000C) but one has Win95 and the other 98.
Anyways, the 98 one just won't start up. I think the battery is shot and won't hold a charge anymore. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't do anything.
The 95 one has a more serious problem then a faulty battery. When I start it up it has an error of "Failure Fixed Disk 0". It tells me to run Phdisk /Create command or some such, but I can't get into DOS to do it. I'm guessing the hard drive crashed.
Also, both computers, when they did work, had a "Bad CMOS Checksum" error requiring me to enter Setup and load the default CMOS settings everytime it starts.
Is it possible for me to switch the HDs and still have them work? I don't think it will cause of the different OSs of each one.
