Answer»

Please any more help on my TOPICS please
Thank you Per http://www.dooyoo.co.uk/laptops/fujitsu-siemens-amilo-l7320/ , your computer has a DVD drive. So, why haven't followed the advice and installed Windows by putting the Windows disc in your DVD drive and booting from it? If your DVD is not working, then replace it; you've already been given this advice but have not responded to it.Hi - Soybean - You clearly haven't read all my replies - I first said that my DVD/CD is not working - My further replies:- I have an extternal drive and changed the bios to try and boot from a USB; but that didn't work - tried the six floppy disks but on the sixth disk the loading stopped and the blue stop screeen was shown - I tried to remove the drive from the computer first looking to see how it 'JUST' SLIDES out , I took most of the outer CASING off but was unable to remove the bottom casing have unscrew all the visable screws. So I don't wish to sound rude, because I have been so please that people have responded. so I have tried evey THING that I have been advised to do, what I'm hoping that some one can help as to just making the drive slide out? All the above plus more I have all ready replied It's a standard notebook optical drive, a NEC ND-6750A.

To remove dvd drive, take out the battery and remove the three screws underneath, then fold your screen back till your laptop is flat this will release the the top fascia where the power button is (it clips off in three places can take a little welly to get it off), this will then allow you to take away the keyboard, underneath the keyboard, you'll see several screws, however you'll see one screw next to a gap in the surface, this is the back of the drive and holds it in place once you've removed the screw take out your drive, you'll need to take off the little PIECE of metal on the back of the drive that the screw goes through and attach it to your new one. then replace the fascia and put your new drive in.

remember that you need your dvd drive open before you do all this, i know its obvious but theres nothing more annoying than when you forget.

Hi - Samon Trout - I'm sorry I did not want to upset any of you kind helpful people out there, I just could not understand why I had to keep repeating the problem I have been having, any way thank you kindly for your help, I have now easly removed the drive as per your clear and easy to use directions. Once again Thank you. I have been trying to make my poblem clear on each reply, and perhaps I was wrong to use bold and Underline, I just got feed up keep repeating myself, any way sorry

Malhope you are closer to a solution now... (see I removed all my sarcasm!)
