Startup menu options doesnt respond

[momzdbest1]

Hi there,

I bought a used  HP Pavilion g6 series notebook, but turned out that it has a password, so I created a CD to overpass it, the thing is that cd is not stating by it self on startup, so I tried to go through the startup menu and change Boot device options, and here was the problem !!  all the options shown in the startu menu are not working ,  What can I do !! pls help, I'm not an expert and don't understand big words, so pls take it easy on me when you answer : )

The notebook is HP Pavilion g6-1a40ca Notebook PC , windows 7

Thank you in advance

momzdbest1,

If I were you I'd order and run HP recovery discs for your model.  You can order them here.

refer to page 81 in the following weblink:

Please navigate to System Configuration option in menu, then to Boot Options and then to Boot Order to set the boot order.

once set, please save the changes and exit the BIOS. All the navigation procedures are available in the link above.

Just a quick question, do you think the Recovery Discs will run !! I mean the cd to reset the passwords didnt run automatically !!

Thanks in advance
