hi am having trouble with the above computer and was wondering if anyone would know how to fix these problems
it is a fairly new computer (3-4 month old). everything was working fine until I tried to wipe windows 8 and replace it with windows 7. I deleted all partitions including the recovery partition so cant repair using that.
the problem is windows 7 didn't install properly and now the bios isn't recognising my hard drive or dvd drive in the boot settings. I cant get by the bios at all
is there a way to reinstall the bios as I'm sure I changed stuff in dos to try get it working and have now made the computer unusable. I have tried setting the bios defaults but it still doesn't show anything to boot from even though that the bios sees the hard drive and dvd drive in sysInfo.
thank you
