Re: [Notebooks] HP-compak notebook need too go back

said by lonnie_30309 :

i have put the windows recovery disk in and it will not install windows nor repair windows keeps giving me an error mes about a bad driver file it will not begin to repair or install it crashed downloading some windows update on the web something about the microsoft install wizard so IM guessing taking the hard drive back to 0's and then reinstalling the windows cd from the start will fix the problem
Hmm, that does not sound like the hard drive needing to be erased, rather it souds like the error is a bad driver file on the recovery disk...

When you boot up with a recovery disk, you are using it's drivers, not anything on the hard drive, yes?

@ga.us

 u just may be right but lol do u or does anyone know the keys to rewriting the hard drive to 0's on a compaq notebook I'm going to call them and reorder the recovery disk for this system because i think u maybe right it just may be an error mes about a bad driver file on the recovery disk and i did not think about that because it does go right to the error mes and does not even try to load windows off the cd
