Need help removing unwanted SW
Dear sir/madam,
I have unsucessfully installed system commander 2000 (DOS) on my PC. I was playing around with the program and made an attempt to install it, which has gone wrong. I am not sure if should have installed it on a FAT 32 file system (Windows 98), but I have. The problem is that when the PC boots up every time, I get an error message - "Boot error, cannot run system commander : disk error". Underneath the error message, I am prompted to enter a number (0-3) of a disk partition to boot from. When I selected to boot from partion 0, the PC boots up OK. I would like to restore my system, so I do not need to select a partition to boot from. I have tried to uninstall the program using the buil-in option, but to no avail. I am very much hoping, that you can help me remove this sw from my system, and preferably without too much difficulty and loss of data. Help much appreciated. Thanks Jas |

Try this. Boot the machine with a Windows 98 startup floppy (bootdisk). At the A prompt, type the following:
fdisk /mbr (enter) sys c: (enter) |

What does the sys command do, glc? Does it restore the system files or something like that?

Yes, it copies the system files back in the root of C:
