Hi Guys
right I need some real good help with this one, I work with computers everyday so have a little knowledge but this is going to take somthing special.
basically I have a laptop that I need to install as OS on for whatever reason installing via a USB keeps failing after lots of attempts and for some other odd reason the DVD drive is not working.
I have no OS on there at the moment so im getting a Missing BOOTMGR error on each boot, as I have said I cannot boot from cd / dvd
this leaves me one option, install over a network connect, Im guessing I will have to use a crossover cable.....
I have another laptop that I canuse to transefer the files all I need is the know how ????
is there a way ?
other info -
I have tried repairing the old installtion this cant be done as there is no installation listed
fixmbr, fixos and all the other standed fix options have also been tried and not worked
