would this disk remove a blue screen of death from boot?

yes but first pull power cord and battery and hold down on power button for 10 seconds put battery back insert disk before you power up.

Yes, that's what I did. Just make sure to change the boot order in the bios to your external optical disk, then back to hdd as primary when finished.

You would need a valid (unused) Windows 7 key, so most likely you'd need to buy a copy. I just did this, there are a few changes you need to make in bios to get it to install, too.

Yes. I found it is best to start Win 7 in safe mode - load the drivers - then reboot.

this flash drive crashed my pc like a blue screen of death from windows 95 dyas, had to return it. could be defective, other people remark it will not do usb3 or work on such a port and it doing only usb2, try a scan disk to check for errors,

The OS is stored on the hard drive. If you just change the mobo it should still boot right up without any problem. You may have to re validate your Windows installation. If it gives you a message to do this after a period of time it should take your product key. If it won't work then you will have to call Microsoft and they will likely help you with it. This has been a great Motherboard for me. Good luck.

Hey Michelle: I got one of those blue screens with all kinds of error messages on it. I could not go any further no matter how many times turned off and on the computer. The windows recovery disk did help, however it erases the drivers or software for your dvd drive and your sound and printer and all your other software like word, etc. The cd will work while the dvd portion doesn't. You will also need to buy a windows xp drivers disk which you can buy on ebay for about $10 in or to get your sound and dvd to work. Assuming you get your computer to work and it should, then you need to reinstall all your other programs including printer software. Best of luck, Elliott

If you're replacing a drive, it should boot to it. Best way to find out-try it. if it doesn't boot, go into biosand make necessary change. You can always use F8 key to select boot device too.

Sorry to be answering so late.The only thing I changed, that I remember is the boot order. I made sure it looked for the disk first. I also found that the company helped, they even responded with an email. Hope this helped.

I am not sure. But like you I am also having problems with my hard drive. It has to be replaced.

Yes, but you will need the product code for the OS on the unit if your using a recovery disc. If you have the original install disc, then the code should be on it or on the side of the computer.

If your computer BIOS supports booting from an optical drive (and all new ones do) this will work fine. you will probably have to go into the BIOS and set your drive to be the first boot item.

Yes, but you really need to know what you're doing as far as drivers go to get everything set up properly. I have mine running Windows 7. It can be done, it just takes a little extra work. Also, you need to disable secure-boot from within the bios before you begin anything at all

That should work just find. Remember that it is the OS that will or will not recognize the size of the drive(s), not the hardware in most cases. But motherboard BIOS might be questioned and looked into just to double check

Unfortunately I don't believe it will. Mine was doing the same thing as some startup files were erased and it would not allow me to go past startup. This disk was completely useless in helping me at all. I spent 50.00 on repair disks only to have to buy a Windows refurbished computer drive for a few more dollars. Hope this helps you.

Yes, as long as you have "boot from usb device" enabled and set in your bios.
