Powerbook g3 won't start up

[JohnJB]

Please help!

I have a powerbook g3 300 running OS 8.6 which has been running fine until today.

Now it refuses to start up and is showing the following error massage...

"..cannot start up because the following system library cannot be found - DragLib - SetDragImage."

It is suggesting I restart with the original system disks but these have been lost.

Any ideas for how I progress would be very welcome.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if this link will help, but you can at least get System 7.5 in full install form. Maybe you can boot from that just to perform a repair. I am not an expert in the older Mac OS, unfortunately.
