Hello,
I just finished installing a larger hard drive in my laptop, and have run fdisk and formatted the new C: drive. Everything looks ok.
When I try to run and install the Compaq Quick Restore disc (w/Windows ME), it looks like it is going to work, and then I get ERROR 50.4.
I'm stuck.
Any ideas...?
Alternatively, Is there any way to copy what was on the original drive to the new drive? Easily.
Would appreciate any help anyone can provide.
Regards,

Did the error have any other Important information like:

Error 50: You attempted an operation that cannot be performed from your computer or that is not supported on the specified server. Make sure you are using the correct server for the command or task that you want to perform. If the problem persists, contact your network administrator.

Thanks for your reply.
There was no info, just "Error 50-4".

I'm thinking it might be easier to clone the old hard drive to the new hard drive, as I've had this problem before with OEM discs. p.s. i am the network guy - and he's no help...
