I have bought a neat little laptop 3rd hand. It has no disc, back up, restore point (i know i know!) I have used it for a few weeks without any problems. I *-think-* it may have been knocked by one of the kids and now I can't get into vista. Infact I can't get to anything! Please help, I'm a complete tech~virgin :o On power up it flashes up with "press f2 or f11" then it turns off an on repeatedly? I managed to get to a "report this problem" ( I don't know how?) and it said that the operating system could not be found. Any ideas? Anyone? -- joaboo |
