Acer Travelmate 4060 New Hard Drvie

Hi All,

Here’s an odd one for you.

I’m installing a new Hard Drive into a Acer TravelMate 4060.

I have it set to boot from the CD, but when the Laptop is turned on it just reports that there is no Operating System. If I put the old HDD in then it see’s the OS and then will happly boot from the CD.

Had anyone come across this problem before and what was the fix for it. I don’t want to have to keep going back to the old HDD as it in on it’s last legs and I need to be able to pull data back from it later.

I’ve spoken to Acer, but as it is not them doing the work and I have replaced the HDD they are not interested in helping.

Cheers

Chris
