How do you bypass an 'invalid system disk' at startup?

If the computer thinks your C: drive is invalid, you need to reload the operating system. In those conditions the disk has become corrupted or the OS has been trashed by a virus. If you have a disk in either the floppy drive or the CD drive and the computer is trying to bootload from there, just remove the disk and it should boot ok.

While booting, a computer looks at a number of available disks (floppies, CDs, harddisks) to see if they contain a bootable operating system. Older PCs would always boot from the harddisk, unless a floppy was present, and if that floppy didn't contain an operating system (like DOS), it would give this error message so you could remove the floppy and the computer could go on booting from the harddisk.
