Hi everyone,
I have a laptop with no floppy or CD drive, which will only boot to the hard drive. The HD is currently formatted – so the laptop will not boot up. I can remove the HD and plug it into a USB docking station and access that through my Mac, either in OSX or a Windows 7 virtual machine.
I am hoping I can use the Mac to prepare the HD and make it bootable so I can return it to the laptop and it will boot, either to DOS or Windows. I’ve tried copying the contents of various boot disks (intended for floppy disk, I think) and the contents go on there OK but it will not boot when placed back in the laptop.
How do I make this hard drive bootable?
Any help gratefully received.
Thanks,
KaiBosh
