Death_Reincarnated Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 This is done in Windows and not in Bios. Yes, it can (normaly) be done in WinOS, however, if you can't get into it then the other way (which what I was trying to suggest - sorry I meant just after BIOS and not in BIOS) is go to 'Advanced Boot Options' by pressing F8 - I think this is only possible in Win7 though.

Grim Reaper Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 thanks for the input Death, but I already have a new hdd and am up and running. I am still hoping to try and extract some of the data from the old one but I'm not willing to pay someone to do it If you are up and running on a new HD at this point, you should be able to plug the old HD into another computer and grab the data off the disk. You might need to find an adapter depending on what you are connecting the old HD to.. If it is just the boot that is corrupt, you should be able to grab the data Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
