Free OS, I use it to boot up when Windows going haywire

You can load it from a CD or Flash drive and actually RUN it without installing it

If windows was pre installed, that means there is a part of the hard drive partitioned with the OS(HDD RECOVERY). Depending on the brand you will know the combination to press on the keyboard in order to boot.

Example: if using a Toshiba : Press 0 & Power Key combination (HDD Recovery)
DELL : Ctrl + F11 ( press combination as computer is turned on
HP : Press F10 as computer is turned on
Google for other brands!

I have a toshiba. I'm getting a
"check cable connection PXE-MOF Exiting intel PXE ROM
No bootable device-insert boot disk and press any key"
message...

I also have a toshiba and this combination worked for me when i did a recovery without disc. this error can be either a BIOS error(this is it is booting from LAN or something else messed up) or a hard drive problem. You sure u holding down the "0" key and pressing power? The BIOS is simple enable/disable functions, but if you dont know about it, i recommend you do not interfere, and carry by a Technican OR you can try to get a recovery CD from someone or an Original Disc and just boot from the drive. I believe F12 is boot options( choose CD Drive) and F2 is BIOS setup.

You may find more help trough the toshiba laptop forums on the net.

cool.Thanks...i could try that as well...

This Info Might not be exact to what you have but should be similar cause it is from a Toshiba.

As u press the power, keep your hand on F2.

This will enter you into the BIOS SETUP.
Use the arrows <-- & --> on the keyboard to move between Tabs.

Main Tab : This info is standard.

Advanced Tab: Check, SATA CONTROLLER MODE is set to COMPATIBLE( press F9 to change)

Display Tab: Leave as is

Security Tab: Leave as is

Boot Tab: (MUST BE IN THIS ORDER)(IF not in this order look at the directions on screen to move up or down)

HDD/SSD1 Hitachi ( Yours should be similar, this is the hard drive)
CD/DVD
FDD
LAN

Exit Tab: Exit Save Changes : Yes

After this the computer will restart,(If you made changes), check to see if the PC will start on its own,if not try the combination.

If this doesn't work, then you definitely need the Recovery Disc or Original Disc

Thanks rmrunner,didn't work ,I guess I need those discs.....

OR you could just use the original discs.....SLIC 2.1 FTW....lol
SLIC 2.0 was balls and 1.0 was soooooo easy to circumvent...

i use my discs with other brands of pcs and then use the loader to modify the SLIC tables......!!!

Op i'll reinstall the OS for you FOR FREE but i will NOT give you a copy of the disc.
call it my good deed for the year...
