ID: Q187294


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows 95


SUMMARY

When you run the Emergency Recovery Utility (ERU) wizard in Windows 95, you may use a formatted floppy disk even though the wizard prompts you to insert a formatted system disk.


MORE INFORMATION

When you use a formatted floppy disk instead of a formatted system disk with the ERU wizard, you can not use this disk as a bootable disk. Other than this disk not being bootable, it is the same as if you use a system disk.
