OS loading problem on Dimension 4550
My PC keeps locking up so I reformatted the hard drive. Now the CD drive will not recognize the operating system CD. I keep getting the error message "Invalid System Disk Replace the disk and then press any key". What am I doing wrong?

Do you have a floppy disk in the a: drive? If so, remove it. Is your BIOS set with the CD-ROM drive as the first drive in the boot sequence? If not, go into the BIOS and change the boot sequence to boot from the CD-ROM drive first.

I assume you are using an original cd here.
NT, XP, ME, 2000, W98SE are all bootable. Are you using one of those ?
If so, maybe the cdrom or the drive do not recognise it. Can you check that on another pc ?
