NTDETECK FAILED

[Ben]

Soon as I turn the comp. on, the back screen comes up and
it says: "NTDETECK FAILED"
Nothing else and there is nothing else I can do with
comp. Do you know about this?

Try creating an NTBoot disk to boot the computer. If the computer
successfully boots from the floppy copy the files to the root of C.
