I really hate to tell you this...especially after you went out and bought a new system....but I have software on a little ole' floppy that would have reconfigured your BIOS back to it's original settings.
A format of your original hard drive, along with a new partition would have stood an %85 chance of a full recovery.

Also... the reason I asked about your old system, is because, I accept donations of parts. I work in a financially depressed area of SOuth Jersey. The people here can't afford squat. So what I do is cobble pieces together and make workable...albeit slower systems. I give them Net Zero access for ten hours or so a month free...and then give away the systems to families with kids. Of course I load up FR as their home page....hehehe.
Hope all goes well with your new system...any probs, feel free to contact me.

That's good to know, just 'in case'.

However...just between you and me, even if I had known that, I'd still have insisted to Mr. S_S29 that 'the IBM was damaged beyond repair and a new computer was in order'.
