Is this "P.C."???

[johnk911]

Perhaps I am now posting in the P.C. correct Forum??? I have a Sharp PC 7000, that is not a "Laptop" kinda? It is a small "Portable" kinda in as much as U carry it around, but would not want to work with it on Ur lap. It has a remotable keyboard & 2 51/4" floppy drives. The screen "Tilts" away from the "Box". It tries to start up & begins "Loading", but it throws an error msg. saying it can't find the "Boot" sector. I have the Original "DOS" disk & a copy that read on this machine, so I'm not sure what is wrong. I don't hear the drives, but their indicator light is working which may be indicative that at least they are getting power. Is there any intrest in this machine??? Is there someone who could help in getting it to boot? All Help is appreciated. John

I sent you an email separately regarding the symptoms. However, this might be an alternative for you also.

I have a Sharp PC 7200, if the hard drive has gone kaput then you're out of luck, it has a wierd one that I've never seen before (Made by JVC). If it can get as far as the boot sector, maybe it's salvageable.
