I cannot even get that far. This is what happens when I boot from cd.
I click boot from cd, the setup inspects hardware configuration,
windows setup loads files
windows setup starts windows
I have the option to press enter to set up windows xp, or to repair the installed windows xp
Which ever option I choose I get the same message:
Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed on your computer.
and I am advised to check the driver power, etc and if it's all connected to check the disk related hardware configuration.
If I start the machine regularly, through the hard *censored*, the computer starts up and I am able to access the internet and run a game that I play over the web.
However, I cannot download anything from microsoft, cannot access my hotmail/login. I am directed to a blank white page with the correct address but nothing on it. Also, running yahoo messenger, I can send messages and apparently receive them, but the message screen is white, so I cannot read them.
I cannot access search on my machine and also cannot access user accounts, same issue, blank screens. I cannot use my McAfee also, starting it gives me a blank screen.
This is driving me crazy.
