Scandisk issue.

[JGANS]

YOU MUST RESTART THE COMPUTER WITH THE DISK FOR WIN XP IN
MAKE SURE YOUR BIOS IS SET UP TO BOOT FROM DISK AND THEN
BE READY TO HIT A KEY TO BOOT FROM CD WHEN PROMPTED IT
DOES NOT APPEAR ON SCREEN VERRY LONG THEN ONCE YOU ARE
PROMPTED TO CHOOSE SET UP WIN XP THEN HIT R WHEN PROMPTED
TO RESTORE OR SET UP NEW INSTALL THIS WILL FIX THE PROBLEM
THAT WIN 9X/ME SCAN DISK CAUSED.
