Computer: Toshiba M45-S2692
I replaced the HD and want to reinstall Windows XP. When I boot from the XP disk it requires an original Windows 98, 95, ME, etc disk for validation since I have only a XP upgrade disk. If I use my Toshiba Recovery disk for validation it tells me it can't read the CD. My next attempt was to reinstall Windows 98 from the Toshiba Recovery disk that came with the computer; then later I could upgrade to XP. However that Recovery disk puts me into a never-ending loop: Welcome to Toshiba Recovery Utility, Press F1 to proceed; that yields to a screen that says WARNING this will erase your HD, Press C to continue.
When I press C, it goes to the "In touch with tomorrow Toshiba" screen and starts over again.
You guys have been my most reliable resource.
Can you help?
