How can I configure my computer to boot from the CD Rom drive
I have Windows 7 home version and I have a problem with booting from the cd rom. I did a cd bootable for a work at home job, but it will not work properly. It works fine on the desktop of my sister, but not my laptop. What is happening is the CD loads when I restart my computer, but then it goes to a black screen and just stays there until I have eject the CD. I can hear the CD running, but I get nothing after the initial splash screen. I have reset the bios to make sure that the CD-Rom was placed up in the boot parameters. Any ideas why this CD will not completely loaded? Thanks for any help you can give.
Please note, in order to install Windows 7, you must have a DVD player, if you have a CD-ROM drive, which will not work.

Ahmed.Hello
If you have already changed the partitions of HARD drive and deleted files from the HARD disk, then your HARD drive recovery is too bad!
But to make sure that the HARD drive recovery is not possible please press F8 immediately after the power of the laptop. Usually a start menu should appear and you should be able to choose the option called fix my computer. Then you should be able to choose recovery option.
But like I said that this is only possible if your HARD drive was not formatted!
If you have formatted the HARD drive and changed partitions then you will need a Toshiba DVD recovery that you have not because you didn t he create at the beginning. Is this good? Well, then you must order the recovery DVDs if you want to retrieve the laptop to factory settings.

How can I get WIndows8 TouchSmart to boot from the recovery disc
How can I get WIndows8 TouchSmart to boot from the recovery disc? With the recovery in the drive disk when I do a reboot or stop and start it does not read anything from the DVD player. My computer is a HP TouchSmart 23-D160QD.
You may need to change the boot order to boot from the DVD drive first. The steps to do this are in the document below.
http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00364979
These are recovery disks made by the recovery discs sent by HP? They will not work in a different system (you will receive an error message), but you are able to get the boot floppies in a different system? They should be able to start up to a point where the error message will be displayed.

Cannot boot from the CD-ROM drive
I have a Dell Dimension 9100. Operating system is Windows XP.
The CD-ROM drive works great for playing CDs and recording stuff, but I can't boot from it.
Everything is fine with my computer at this time, it starts fine from the HARD disk, but I anticipate before when I need to use Acronis image rescue media under my method of recovery after a disaster.
For some reason any does not start my 9100 the drive, even after changing the BIOS boot sequence to insert 1. My Dimension 4400 starts the CD player without problem. 4400 boots even in the backup media created in the 9100.
I carefully followed the instructions in the Dell knowledge base article "How to configure a Dell Dimension series system to Boot to the CD drive", does not. I opened the folder and reinstall CD drive connections. In addition, I am at a loss.
I hope someone can help me get this right. Thank you.

How can I configure my computer to the simple click with the mouse to double-click to open an item on the desktop instead
Hi placebow,
Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options. On the general tab, click single-click to open an item. (To return to the standard click, click double-click to open an item.)
The setting applies not only at the office, but also in other areas of the shell.

Satellite 5205-s705: How can I boot from the CD/DVD drive
I can't run Setup from my cd/dvd rom, there is no such option in the BIOS Setup. How can I boot from the cD or DVD?
Please, help me!Hello
You are not able to boot from the CD/DVD drive?
If you are unable to change the boot order in the BIOS, I would advise you by pressing the F12 key immediately after starting the laptop.
A start menu should appear, then you should be able to choose the reader of CD/DVD (ODD).You can also try clicking on the C instead of the F12 button. The C button the STRANGE start.
Check this back and forth!
Good luck
