    My Brother rang the other day ask if I could install his w98se over w95 so as he could install software he needed quickly for kids school. Tried to install but told us it needed room for partition so I fdisk and found it had four 1% partitons on it so I fdisk all of them. Know when I try to load it tells me Missing Operating system. Thought OK no worries I'll go to Cmos and make a: first drive to boot but know when I turn it on and hit F10 it comes up with a password to get in and no one remebers the password. They don't have a restore disk and I don't know where to get another one. Had a look on motherboard to try and take out battery hoping it might reset but can't find it.What are my options know.
