I successfully installed your EIDE Hard Drive 160 GB WD Caviar SE on my Compaq Presario Model 5725. This upgrade was intended to replace the previous Hard Drive that had Configuration problems and no longer was capable of operating the Windows 98 system in the "Normal" mode. I was only able to operate in the "Safe" mode. I planned that I would utilze your drive as the new boot main drive and then capture the programs I wanted from the slave drive (formerly C:\ main drive). So, after installing your drive I encountered an error statement "Operating system not found on the hard drive" and I agree as I have the Windows 98 OEM disk and the Second Addition Update in my hands? How do I transfer these operating system disks to your hard drive?? I need explicit step-by-step instructions? I already ran your Diagnostics Bootable disk with no errors encountered.

Ok you need to reboot your computer from the CD rom with xp disk in it.
start your computer hold down the f12 key, a small menu will come up , pick cd/dvd/cd-rw drive with your arrow keys ,
select enter , follow xp directions on how install operating system on the monitor.
