I reformatted my computers hardrive, intending to reinstall everything from it's provided recovery disk. However, now when I start the computer, it isn't reading or booting from the cd drive, so won't recognize the cd. It just scans the hard drive and says invalid boot disk. I tried pushing F8 to go to the boot menu and reset the order it boots from the drive, but it no longer shows all the loading information and there seems to be no time to do this. Is there any other way to access the boot menu? I no longer get a prompt when the computer loads, just the incorrect disk message. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
