Solve : Recovery CD Error, Lost Windows?

Answer» <html><body><p>Hello,<br/><br/>I turned on my Acer Travelmate 240 today and recieved the following onscreen:<br/><br/>----------<br/><br/>Intel UNDI, PXE-2.0 (build <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/082-1748825" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 082">082</a>)<br/>Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation<br/><br/>For Realtek RTL8129(X)/8130/810X PCI Fast Ethernet Controller v2.13 (020326)<br/>PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable<br/>PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROMT.<br/>Operating System not found.<br/><br/>----------<br/><br/>Ok, so after much decision making I decide there is nothing no my computer I can't afford to lose so I get out the Recovery CDs that came with the computer.<br/><br/>I follow the instructions onscreen, and while trying to run Recovery CD 1 I get the following error:<br/><br/>----------<br/><br/>Error #88<br/>Unable to find the drive specified<br/><br/>----------<br/><br/>I no i didn't specify a drive so I assume the computer did. I decide to check the Acer website for Error #88 only to find out that they don't keep a record of Errors. I go to email them and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/learn-536886" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LEARN">LEARN</a> that emails will only be answered Monday through Friday.<br/><br/>After all this, my laptop still does not work. Can anyone help me?it will work. <br/>This happened with my presario....lol as amazing as it is<br/>what i did is i put the operating system into the drive. then booted up<br/>i reformated my computer<br/>re installed windows<br/>took my driver recovery disk and used it and got the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/drivers-21170" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DRIVERS">DRIVERS</a> back for the wirelesss netowrk adapter (integrated) and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/also-373387" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ALSO">ALSO</a> the side volume controlers<br/>If you really need to you can use the application recovery to recover applications<br/>i wouldnt use it because it may bring spyware/adware/viruses back<br/>Have fun and i hope that this works for youOk, I found a copy of Windows XP Home (It didn't come with the laptop, the laptop's copy is on the Recovery CDs, it had Pro). I tried to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/install-2121155" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INSTALL">INSTALL</a> it and got the message:<br/><br/>----------<br/><br/>Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer.<br/><br/>----------<br/><br/>This isn't looking good. Any help?It is possible to solve the problem simply unpluging data cable from hdd and plug it back... It happened to me a few times, but on desktop computers. Sometimes I needed to install the Operating System again, but ussually, no...</p></body></html>
