Hi All,
When I switch the laptop on I get the following message and 2 beeps:
'No bootable device(s) selected'
'strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for set-up utility'
I then retry the boot, but get the same message appearing on screen.
I then try the set-up utility, where I experimented with the boot configuration. I basically changed the Boot First Device option from 'CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive' to 'Internal HDD', restarted the laptop and got the following message and 2 beeps:
'No boot sector on hard disk - 'strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for set-up utility'
It seems like there is no O/S, so I tried booting a Win2K disc I have, but cannot by pass the above messages. Does anyone have any suggestions? Look forward to your replies.
