Hi,
So I bought a Toshiba Portege 3110CT today at a market. All it came with was it's PSU and some 'PORT' pcmcia CD-ROM drive.
The 6gb HDD was formatted so the machine won't boot. There is no internal floppy drive, so I can't boot that way.
I took the drive out and installed it as a secondary master drive on a Pentium 200 machine (running Win95) and managed to partition and format /S the drive. I figured I might as well copy the win95 installer directory I had on the machine over as well, just in case I get lucky.
Unfortunately the Toshiba still wouldn't boot from the drive after all that. I figure it's a MBR issue, but how can I fix that on the machine (with a fdisk /mbr) without it currently booting?
Any ideas?
