Laptop Bay swap

by jamesboyz . Updated 22 years, 1 month ago

Hi anyone tell me the best way to fdisk/format a laptop (HP omnibook 2100) with two seperate drives.
I can get the hdd fdisk/formated whilst the floppy drive is in but when try to load the cd drivers from the floopy disk it cant find the CD Rom drive, so it doesnt load the drivers on.
so how can i get the CDrom drive to load O/Sall I get is the message
“invalid system disk ,replace disk and press any key”
I have connected the HDD to a PC and loaded the O/S but when it goes back in to the laptop no joy. I have tried several IBM 4.3 gig notebook HDD’s with same problem
