HI all,
I up graded my lifebook to Windows 7 and have been blown away, so much so that I decided I would kill two birds with one stone with my old Toshiba.
It is an M40 Satellite with a 56GB HD, 1,66mhz processor and 1GB Ram,
I managed to clear enough space to install windows 7 (I have been unable too as it was configure to run on a server I no longer have)
The installation went well, or at least it looked as though it did, since the install and the last reboot in the installation proccess it has been in a continuous boot cycle, it comes back with a 'windows error' recovery.
I have tried starting it in every mode available and I still have nothing. I have tried a reinstall with both XP and Windows 7 and setting the Bios to boot from the DVD Rom.
I have eve gone as far as to get DBAN Nukem to clear the HD and still it will not recognise anything from the DVD Rom.
Have anyaone had a similar experience and can anyone shed any light?
I am getting close to tossing it in the trash!
Cheers
In Advance!
