Need to transfer system to hard drive from floppy

This morning when I started Windows 95 (actually win98) I got a dos message "Invalid system disk".

I put in my startup "floppy" in my "A" drive and it started dos, and, thankfully I was able to switch over to Drive "C".  And I see my directories are there.  I tried just typing WIN but that didn't start windows.

How do I do that?

Thanks,

Rowby
