Ok my girlfriends laptop is acting funky so I go to format/reinstall windows from the recovery disc that came with. Place the disc in drive… Restart pc, put cd rom to top of boot order, made sure boot menu was enabled, when boot menu loaded I selected the cd Rom drive, and it still just keeps loading windows instead of booting from disc. I’ve tryed whiling the disc. Nothing wrong with it no scratched or dirty. I’ve even opened the disc in windows and it opens no problem and I can view all the files on it… Will not boot from the disc though. Even tryed using the windows built in recovery from an old 2008 auto backup… Didn’t fix anything. Same problems as before. Whats preventing it from booting from disc? Any ideas? It’s an old accer laptop. Running windows xp.
