Comment:
Does anyone have a quick restore disk for the (pesario 9548) that they could burn me "or borrow", i tried to install windows 98 (after a format) and everything went smoothly until the computer rebooted to finish the installation and just flashed the blue windows 98 start-up screen and went to the C: Prompt?, i think i need the original quick restore for this???? any ideas?

Sounds as if you have only transferred the command.com file to your hdd afetr the format. How did you try to install Windows? Why not try again. Boot with a Win98 boot disk and load setup from CD (probably the E drive).
