    I purchased the following laptop off eBay for the sole intention of playing an old computer game that ran on Windows 98:

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....MEWN:IT&viewitem=&item=330129444847&rd=1&rd=1

    The laptop was fine but after much messing around to get the game working I have unintentionally deleted something.

    Now it simply says 'Insert system disk in drive' when I try and boot up the laptop. I insert a Windows 98 disk and it just give me the same message.

    Is there anyway of re-installing an operating system in these circumstances?

    Thanks for any help.
