Hi,
I accidentally compressed the boot manager on my girlfriend's computer. I bought the Vista Recovery disc from the website and burned it to a DVD+R disc. I inserted it and hit F12 (I'm using an Acer) for Boot Menu. I selected the CDROM to boot first and it didn't work. I then put the Recovery Disc files on to a USB and made it bootable using EasyBCD. I selected the USB (tried all forms of USB ex. USB-FDD, USB-ZIP, USB-CDROM, & USB-HDD) but it still didn't work. Can someone let me know if I'm doing something wrong or if this is a lost cause. Thanks in advance. -Iain
What I'm using:
-Acer Aspire Desktop (Compressed Computer)
-Dell Inspiron Laptop (Helper computer)
-Windows Vista 36-bit on both computers
-Memorex DVD+R disc
-Mercury USB drive
-EasyBCD 2.1.2
-Windows Vista 32 Recovery Disc file (bought and downloaded from neosmart website)
