I already formatted my C drive, but my floppy drive is broken. Now when I put the system installation disc into the CD-ROM, the system says "invalid system disc". I also set the CD-ROM as the first boot device in CMOS, but it still doesn't work. I want to get into DOS to install it. What should I do?

Is your CD-ROM drive broken? Or is the disc bad? Or did it show the prompt to boot from CD and you didn't press Enter?

Take the hard drive out and install it in another computer, otherwise I really can't think of any good solution But you can try booting from a USB drive, if your computer isn't too "ancient" and if you have a USB drive, hehe

Can this CD boot on another computer?

If your network card has a boot ROM, try booting and installing through a server.
