after reformatting windows freezes everywhere I try to go.

Expand Post »

I reformatted my hard drive and everything went okay, except when I try to install the correct drivers it freezes at the browse portion to access the drivers. It will only work on the A: drive. But my drivers are saved on a zip disk B: when I try to go to my computer icon or windows explorer to transfer the data to the A: drive It freezes up and wont work. Also, my display drivers are incorrect and I can't run any mechanic software or AOL because I only have the 16 color option.
Can anyone help?
Please

Re: after reformatting windows freezes everywhere I try to go.

You might try booting to a dos prompt (F8) and manually copy the drivers from B to a folder on C

Use the md command to make a folder

md drivers

copy b:\*.* c:\drivers\*.*

Then they should be available to windows...
