So far no go, there is no USB support on the bios menu and I have already
downloaded the
UBCDforwin but cannot get the laptop to boot from it.
Safe Mode using the f8 menu is fine but Safe Mode crashes out and restarts, as
soon as it
loads files, unless I put a Norton recovery disc in, in which case it will do a
AV check
report ok not infected but command prompt for cd give bad error or command
response?
By the way the system restore under XP was switched off and has been for the
last couple
of years to save disc space!
H..E..L..P..
