If that system has either an external SCSI or USB, you can get an external drive. The problem is booting. Systems die for many reasons. Even if the system was not intruded, things can happen to make it unbootable. I assume that your system is SCSI, so if you get an external SCSI CD ROM, you should be able to boot from it. I gave my external CD ROM to John Abreau. You might be able to hire him to fix your problem. Hugh Rutledge wrote: > Thanks for your answer. It's informative. > > Brilliant me.
