when a hard drive is replaced in a laptop, what do you do? ive just put a new one in mine. what im doing is ive got windows XP on a disk and im trying that, is that supposed to work? cause it aint working, although i think my CD drive is broke, would replacing that fix the problem?
I'm confused by what you're asking. Are you saying that you put a blank hard drive in your laptop and you need to install Windows? Then yes, put the XP disk in the DVD drive and follow the instructions, if nothing comes up, then your DVD drive is busted, or it's not the secondary boot device in the BIOS.
yes you were answering the correct question.
that makes sense, so i guess its broke then, thank god ive got a spare from my sisters old laptop.
thanks
