hello
im trying to install win98 on a ibm thinkpad 365. when i start it it goes through a memory test then says congratulations on your ibm thinkpad, then "invalid system disk". Im trying to get in the setup and change the boot sequence as there is no floppy so I think i need to boot from the cd first. problem is i cant get there to change it. i press f1 but it keeps saying "invalid system disk
thanks

You dont press F1 when powering on....but rather press and HOLD DOWN "F1" while turning on the power.

It could be that the F1 key is not working....and if that is the case....you will need a new keysheet for your keyboard inside of the TP.
