Need help! I bought 2 Compaq EVO N180 laptops. I can get into BIOS screen and change boot order(I think) by making the top of list to CD rom.
I can"t get the units to boot from the CD(or dvdrom) to load new copy of OS . I have a fresh xp pro to install -the laptops have xp pro COA on bottom-
They just keep saying " no operating system found". How do I force them to boot from the dvdrom so they will load windows os?? these laptops are in almost new condition, so I would really like to fix for my kids!
