I have an elderly compuer (win98SE)
2 hard drives C: amd D: with windows 98 installed on C:
When booting now it takes sometimes 10 attemps before the
machine will start.
It tells me no hard drives were found and does not boot.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Hello
Enter the BIOS see if the harddrives are present, could be master harddrive
failure.
