Title: {Request} Bootable Device - for Dummies
Post by: tram on March 17, 2007, 09:10:08 PM

Here is my situation.

I started up my computer, and for reasons unknown my computer said, "Bootable Deivce not found -- Insert boot disk and press any key"

I have searched for resolutions, but I'm not good with too many technical terms, so I'm looking at resolutions I know nothing about.

My Computer:
Sony Vaio - Model: PCV-C41L
Windows XP: Media Certer Edition 2005
Has a dvd burner drive and a hard drive.

If someone could link me a page with the correct solution to my problem that would be wonderful, or if someone could point me in the right direction, that'd be great too.

Thanks for the help.
