I “inhereted” a newer generation Hewlett Packard Pavilion from my aunt after an incident which has supposedly fried the motherboard.
She was online, and assuming atacked by a virus, her computer went dead.
I have gotten the computer to turn on, but claims “No Operating System”
The HD is still good, I have also tried using a different drive to no avail.
A boot disk is of no use, because for some reason the CD Drive is “Not Available/Not Connected/Already in Use”
The light on the drive works, however it will not open and close. It is as though the only functioning piece is the Diskette Drive.
I am also able to access Bios.
If anyone has any thoughts/ideas/plans of attack for me, please let me know.
It claims not to find any drives other than A:\
Thanks,
Brett
