1ke: Envy133 BIOS

‎06-14-2010 02:30 PM

Original thread: http://h20435.www2.hp.com/t5/Notebooks/Envy133-BIOS/td-p/56903

 

Quick question.  My OS is corrupt and isn't booting properly, I need to do an install and obvsiously I have to select a boot device via boot manager or BIOS.  How do I get to either of those?

When the laptop is booting, hit either the F8 or the F10 key. Try F8 first. Then pick your device. Most computers are set to boot to a disk first.

Sorry forgot that the Envy doesn't have an optical drive. You need an external drive and set the bios to boot to usb first.
