I am propodsing to use the setu disks from:

and want to know if they will wipe the data from my hard disks?

No. All they do is to enable you to start the Install process from a machine that has a BIOS that won't allow booting from the CDROM drive...


This is due to loosing my monitor drive and also my monitor from the device manager view, resulting in my not being able to now get to my desktop when turning on my PC.

Ideas/thoughts much appreciated.


And how will using these boot-up floppies re-create your Monitor?
