I have a laptop which is is installed windoes98, The thing is it was working just fine until the other day when i switched it off and when i tried to switch it on again, It said that WINDOWS/HIMEM/SYS File is missing and the other 2 files that i forgot their names. I have another computer that it is installed Windows XP, The problem is that when i switch it on it says Boot failure, Insert a diskett in A and press any kes when ready. I tried to install Windows XP for serverall times but it keeps on displaying that massage.Please help.I dont know much about computers.
