chilifrei64 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Whe you boot your machine.. look for for something that says "Setup=> F8 or something along that path.. it will say like to enter setup press "Whatever Key"Look for boot sequence and make sure your cd-rom is number 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtwarrior Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 reboot computerwhen or before you hear beeb press deletethis should bring up bioslook for the boot orderWhy do you think you must run ERD? This has a much higher learning curve than trying to figure out how to change the boot order. This boots into a mini windows. What do hope to accomplish from there?
