I tried running bootinst.exe boot.bin at the MS-DOS prompt but it gave me a message "An application has attempted to directly access the hard disk, which cannot be supported. This may cause the application to function incorrectly." After clicking ignore i proceeded and got the following message: "Error 128 reading boot record from disk 0". Any suggestions?
