There was a topic about this here it is
1) There’s a non-bootable floppy disk in the A: drive
Solution: Eject it
2) There’s a BIOS problem & it’s not trying to boot your hard drive.
Solution: Enter your BIOS settings (Ususally by hitting DEL or F1 as your computer starts up – The Magic Key is usually announced on the screen at power-up). Once there, find your boot options and make sure that your hard drive (probably c:) is in the boot order.
3) Your hard drive is no longer bootable.
Solution: This is a little tougher. If you just need a couple of small files, you can probably use another computer to make yourself a boot-disk by following the instructions at bootdisk.com. Once you have it, you can put it in your A: drive, power up, and then navigate to your files using DOS and copy them off to floppy disks. If they’re bigger, you may need to repair your operating system by using a bootable CD or hard drive before you’re able to return your computer to operating status.
Alternate: You can always pull your hard drive out of your PC, mount it in a working system (a friend’s or a work computer) and retrieve what you need.
It’s not problem 1, it’s most likley 3. But I have know idea how to do that, so can someone give me a dummies guide to fix this. I know quite a bit about computers, but I don’t really know in depth. It’s a windows 95 Hewlett Packard.
