Simplest way is to buy an external dvd drive insert the disc and boot from the dvd drive done. As to whether it will work I don't know. I'm also a little confused why you'd ever consider W98 :lol:

Help with what talking rubbish and ignoring the facts? No thanks.

All of them have. That's why they've been posted. Please read: [/url]

I dont have a mac or any of apples products, I can think for myself and like to chose what I do with the stuff I buy it and what I do on it. Apple dictate (as in dictatorship) what you do with "your" purchase not you. But since you ask: http://www.securemac.com/ take your pick Another...

Absolute rubbish, you have no idea what you're talking about. There are viruses for macs. Wrong twice in one post well done. People are "switching" to macs because they believe all the hype and silly adverts, all of which is rubbish, and have more money than sense since they are getting...

With ebay you have to check the sellers ratings, the higher the percentage of good ratings accompanied with a high number of good feedback generally means its OK. Watch out for the good ratings with very few feedbacks. But its always a gamble with ebay. Though why you'd want to buy XP now...

Just to let everyone know hecongyan has posted a link to a site with a very poor WOT rating and as such shouldn't be trusted, SPAM! Talking of spam below is more spam probably from the same bloke whose post has been removed. There are freely available solution so no need for your spam and...

This could be hardware or software. Try this: Right click on "My Computer". Click on Properties Then Device Manager. Click on the + next to CDRom. Is your CDRom drive listed? If it is, click on it then click on Properties. Click on Settings. If the box next to DMA has a check...

You'll have to weigh up the options. Fat32 compatible with all windows versions, linux and macs. Easier to data recovery. NTFS able to store files larger the 4.3GBs better no folder limit of 65,535, arguably less corruptible.

Or just get rid of AVG which is bloated hard on resources and not that good and install a better Antivirus like Avast or Avira.

Thats a pity :cry: good luck though you'll need it!

Arrr but whilst that is true what I meant was on top of not knowing what he's talking about hes also plainly an idiot as well as being a mac fanboy (an idiot). Basically the blokes a triple idiot, as evidenced but the dense posts he makes, mac fanboy doesn't quiet cut the mustard in this respect...

No, you're missing "Hes a mac fanboy idiot..." and added at the end he also doesn't know what hes talking about.

You're only half right.

Avast is arguably the best free antivirus in the latest av comparatives. Comodo is the best free firewall. You dont need to pay £1000's to be secure (though macs aren't as secure as some think) you can do it for free.

I thought you said safe mode didn't work. The way my recovery mode in vista worked was you selected the language and type in you accounts password and you get to the screen I posted above. @madder I think this covers it: File: \windows\system32\config\system Status: 0xc0000001...

You wont have the install disc because of the recovery partition. I take it you have tried the "repair your computer" option mentioned above as thats what I'm talking about? I know you said the startup repair or something similar didn't work but if you click the "view advanced options for...

OK what make and model of laptop is it? It seems to be a software issue since you seem to be getting some sort of life out of it. It still could be a hardware issue but we'll leave that as a last resort. I take it the laptop didn't come with any recovery discs? If it didn't it has a...

OK have you definitely tried F11? What options do you get?
