Repair - Reinstall --- Now I'm in troouble
Well I tried the repair - reinstall cd and now I am in an never ending loop - start windows normally, safe mode, safe mode with networking, safe mood with command prompt and last known good bootup. Tried them all.
My computer will only recognize the cd drive. I have tried to change the boot sequence in the bios but to no avail. I do not have a emergency floppy and I am out of options. Down to my old PC (Old reliable 400). Any suggestions on this form.
Thanks Callins
Dimension 4550
Bios Ver A06

Is this a cmos/bios problem or is it WinXP problem. Should I reinstall my biosVer a06 or should I install windows again?
Thanks

If the bios does not allow me to change the boot sequence now, will the new software install allow me to change the sequence later?

The boot devices appear to be activated by a check mark. I can uncheck and check, no problem when I change, save, close and return the changes are there.
