Laptop won't boot to CD or USB

#1 Post by big-ty » Wed Nov 10, 2010 4:52 pm

For some reason my laptop won't boot from CD or USB.
I've set the BIOS to boot from both, but it ignores it boots to the O/S.
If I remove the hard drive from the bootable options, it just tells me that the O/S can't be found.

Any ideas why it would ignore these options?

What laptop (exact type/model please [e.g.2647-4NU]).
Is your CD/DVD drive working?
