Girlfriend's laptop won't start Windows, I want to boot from CD drive using Knoppix to try to recover files & repair. How do I get to the boot menu to get it to boot from CD drive?
You can either try to spam the F12 button upon start-up to directly select which device to boot from, or either F4 or Delete are the typical keys used to get into the BIOS and you can change the boot order from there to automatically select a CD drive device if it ever detects one.
Testimonial: "Thank you - found out F2 opens BIOS in this model."

Beeping on initial turn on is generally a Ram issue.
turn off laptop, remove battery.
Remove 1 stick and boot and see if it beeps
if it beeps, remove other stick install stick that was removed
reboot.
SOURCE: I have a video problem
its been a bad install of the drivers, boot into safe mode and uninstall the display drivers, reboot the machine and it should reinstall the drivers itself

Hi.
Yes you should be able to upgrade the processor on the laptop for a faster one. The socket type of the processor is socket PPGA47. This code is what you type for when looking for a faster processor. The installed processor should be Intel Pentium T2390 / 1.86 GH.
As for the graphics card then i'm sorry but the graphics chip is part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.
Regards.

Hello,
If your installation gets stuck while copying files from your cd then it is an issue with RAM. You can try to reset it by unplugging and re-plugging but if the issue stays same then you'll have to replace it.
Let me know if you need any more help
