I have a old 386 ibm system/2 model 70 computer with win 3.1 on it. I made a big mistake when I type in format C:\. Now I need a boot disk. I downloaded boot disks off the internet (dos 5,6,6.2,6.22) none of these do not work. what shell I do? I also need a boot disk for a zenith data system supersport 286. I change the screen settings now the screen come on when first boot then go's back off. I need help. Please email me at t_meiko@yahoo.com
You need to reinstall DOS on the PS/2. The boot disks should boot your computer up OK though. I will email you some information about the PS/2.
