SYMPTOMS
When you are starting Windows 95, you may receive the following error
message:
Non-System disk error.
CAUSE
This error message can occur if you are using an LBA (logical block
addressing) BIOS-only controller with an older hard disk for the boot
drive, causing incorrect drive parameter translations in hard disks that
are not LBA addressable.
RESOLUTION
Use the newer LBA drive as the boot drive instead of the older drive.
