hi ive got an acer d260 net book. i got it from a friend that passed. im having some big problems with it. question 1, the bottom of it was taken off wrong and the shiny metal foil is torn and some small pieces are missing, would this have some thing to do with my second problem. question 2, when i turn it on it goes to the acer screen then goes to a loading screen that says,

Have you checked BIOS to make sure your hard drive is listed first in boot order. Do you have any other external drives plugged in? USB Stick, External HDD ect...

i noticed some thing else when i put amemory card in my hdd light comes on.is that an indicator that my hard drive is bad.

It does most certainly sound like you are missing your operating system. It is not necessarily a bad hard drive, for now I really think you should try and start it with a bootdisk of some sort and see what you get. Check on here http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm and see if you might be up to try and create your own bootdisk. Let us know if you need help with it

doug, I think the biggest problem right now is this "no bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key" that means that your computer does either not have, or can't read, the operating system. If you can, enter the BIOS and see if your Acer still recognizes the hard drive. You can also set the boot order to the digital drive and try to boot it with a live Linux CD. Of course you will have to either borrow an OS disk or download a linux version. I prefer Puppy Linux, due to its simplicity. If you can access the hard drive with a different OS, you may have to get your version OS and reformat your drive. Hope this helps, good luck.

can i down load the boot disk info to a flash drive and instal it from there?

doug 의 2012년 8월 2일

yes you can download it to a USB drive, but it comes as an ISO file that normally would have be burned to a bootable CD. Do you have access to another computer to burn CD's? You may need software to accomplish that. I use UltraISO because I prefer the interface
