i have Hp not deel and its petium 4 windows xp pro and it says i need a new window or hardware so that means i have to reboot my computer but to get cd where do i have to go and how much is the dis for?
@dstar0007 I would call HP support or use their online live support. They will give you a link to a webpage where you can buy a CD. I believe the CDs are around $25. If you plan on keeping your laptop for a while, I strongly suggest making the investment.
okay thnx foor your advise ill try
when I go to boot it i get strke f1 key to retry boot, f2 for setup utility?
i have a blank screen and a white dash in the corner….. will reinstalling that fix it?
will they give it to me for free, even though my warranty expired?
i fucking hate dell computers
thanks!
@kpskate55 if f2 key doesnt get you to the bios screen, try del key and put your cdrom to first boot device. you may have to press the key a few times to enter bios
@maevb2009 if you dont have a disk try hitting the f10 key and if pcangel comes up you can refformat and fresh install without the cd.
Thanks
