Can't load Windows 7 OS by remote
I need to reload W7OS and since I'm brand new at all this I'm using Dell Concierge Service to help me.
Dell sent me the OS disc. The tech called and he took over my computer by remote, I put in the disc and nothing comes up. We waited a long time, and although we could hear it but couldn't see anything. Finally he decided there was something wrong with the disc and said he'd send me another.
About ½ hour after we had ended the session. I decided that I would try the disc again. I put it in, and sure enough it starts up. I didn’t wait to read anything so took it back out and decided to wait for him to call. When he called I told him I had gotten the old one to work.
He took over the computer again, I put the old disc back in, it came up to the first info window where you chose the disc etc. and I click enter and then from there on ---nothing. He did everything on his end that he could but no success---nothing was visible.
After that remote session ended, I tried it again, and sure enough it started,----I pulled it back out waited a bit, put it back in and it started again successfully. So in my mind there is something about his remote session and my trying to load and see the disc that’s not working.
Does anyone have any idea why it works when he's not on, but stops when he is and if there's anything we can do to correct this problem?
Thank you so much for any help you can offer,
