I presume u have a rescue boot floppy disk.
Boot the pc as per normal until u get that screen telling u 'type the name of the command interpreter'
Put the boot floppy in & type this all in one go:
a:sys c:
then hit enter.
The hard drive should start whirring away & then u'll see the a:
Change this to c: & press ctrl-alt-delete & the pc will reboot
