    Brothers old gateway... 550 256RAM upgraded to larger hard drive... :rolleyes: but he dont have his orginal restore disks..

    Orginally was WIN98 SE decided not fast enough for XP so we kept at 98
    loading the generic 98 CD gives me run time error, with BOTH the old HD and brand spanking new one.. Did gateway put up a brick wall around the bios? this CD works fine loading on other computers.. only not on this %&)(*()*_ gateway.. tech support there is a joke.. they trying to make a buck and nothing doing..

    Any one have any idea how to load the OS? Or whats causing the run time error? IT says run time error 00600 integar is less than 0

    Sorry taking a hammer to the MB is out of question he cant afford that... trying to help him have a half way decent one to play poker on.

    thanks!!
