Was about to format my hard drive, and re-install a brand new copy of xp pro ( the one on the comp was an illegal copy apparently). every time i try to go into the bios it just will not let me.
The start up order goes,,,,,
Press f1 to enter bios, Press del to enter start up,, nothing happens when pressing the keys.
then we go to,,,,,, cannott boot from floppy,
cannott boot from cd rom,,,,,,,,, then ,,, INVALID BOOT INI FILE, booting from c/windows
The computer then goes on to start properly and all is well.
It wont let me boot from the new xp cd either.
SO,,, in a nutshell, i cant get into the bios to change the order so i can boot from the xp disc, so i cant re format the drive. completly stuck on this one.?????
i have tried everything, and am getting nowhere.
HELP, PLEASE. AM GOING FN NUTS.
CHEERS, KEV.
