Is it worth taking the battery off the mobo?! To reset the cmos, like. There's a small reset button on the underside which i've pushed lots. Doesn't seem to help. :mellow:
wot bo said.
did ewe ewse the pendrivelinux tool to make the ubuntu .iso bootable? so it formats it all in ext3 lyke?
have ewe tried a different usb port? some frontal/side ones can prevent ewe from booting to them.
in bios ewe said its set to boot to usb? having wake on usb can somethymes make a difference if your bios has it? also disabling fastboot if you have that option too lyke
I've just done all that. And properly. :snooty:Quote:
