My laptop hd crashed so I got a new 160 gig hd for it. The problem I'm having is when I try to install windows, it seems to copy the files ok but won't boot off the hd. I've tried everything I can think of to get it boot but no luck. If I reinstall windows , it give the message OS already installed do you want to delete and reinstall. The drive doesn't show in bios no matter what settings I have. I'm thinking maybe a bios update but can't because I can't boot. I have bios F5 on it now and HP shows an update to F13 on their site. The question is, how can I get bios to recognize the drive and get windows installed? And most importantly, should I try to get laid tonight?

Get laid! And deal with the laptop tomorrow. Maybe someone will have an answer for you by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
