need to create ms-dos boot partition
My computer went haywire, and will only go into ms-dos mode. It says c:\ is an invalid drive and when I try to reinstall windows 98se, it says "cannot create temporary directory". Then it says I need to create a ms-dos boot partition. I tried the fdisk, but I do not get any options. Can anyone help please???

I'd also run the Dell diagnostics - or a diagnostic from the hard drive manufacturer - to rule out a failing hard drive.

It sounds like you have a failed drive.
