I used to have an external drive attached to my laptop computer ut, it was stolen. Now when I try to download anything, it says drive not valid how to save again on the C drive? __
Invalid drive: F:\
Go to the options in any browser that you use and that you change the download location for the now non-existent F:\ to another location such as your desktop. In Firefox, this is done from the tools > Options > general tab. Here's how to change the download location in Internet Explorer:

I got a virus and I had fixed my computer, but now whenever I try to start my computer it tells me that there is no device boot-able and for me to insert a boot disk, then press a button on any. Well, I looked through all the manuals and CD that came with the computer and not for the life of me, I can find a boot disk. It's an old unit, I bought it in 2005 and I've been using Windows XP. Then what should I do? Is there anyway to get a boot disk? Can I just buy a new form of program store like windows vista or windows 7? Please keep in mind and don't forget when you give inform me that I am unable to do anything with the tower. No internet access, no desktop, nothing, so that the download is not an option. It just starts and then tells me to put in a boot disk. So what I do/how can I remedy this? Thanks for the help!
Hi Becca_459,
1. who is the manufacturer of your computer?
2. What is the exact error you get when you start your computer?
I suggest you to check the computer's BIOS settings to make sure that BIOS lists and recognizes the hard disk. See the computer documentation or contact the manufacturer to find out how to check the BIOS settings.
After you verify that the computer's BIOS detects the hard disk, restart the computer, and then test to determine if the problem is resolved.
If the problem is not resolved, or if the computer's BIOS cannot detect the hard disk, you may have problems with your hardware. Contact the manufacturer to find out how to solve this problem
NOTE: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from configuration can resolved BIOS/CMOS settings. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
If it does not, you will need to contact the manufacture of equipment.

has had to reformat my hard drive now when he star0x0000007b (0x78d663c, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
has had to reformat my hard drive, now when I try to reinstall windows xp, I get a blue screen with this code at the end 0x0000007b (0x78d663c, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) how to solve this problemHello
I saw the 0x0000007B BSOD caused by trying to install XP on a disk hard while the BIOS is designating the reader as AHCI instead of IDE. XP has no native AHCI drivers, resulting in a stop 7B. Unless the PC had originally Vista or Win 7, but it might be useful to check that it is not likely.
If the BIOS is set to AHCI, you could do one of three things (depending on whether your PC has a floppy drive)...
1 find the Setup F6 disk on AHCI support at installation time (start with the manufacturer's website if you do not already have such a thing). Watch the very hit F6 prompt early in the installation process.
2. change the setting in BIOS on IDE / ATA
3. create a new "slipstreaming" installation disc drivers AHCI in the existing installation disc, see http://www.nliteos.com/index.html
After the back if your BIOS is IDE / ATA

What is this error message that you receive? This would help a lot. From there, a person must be able to provide some additional troubleshooting steps.
