Hi,
Need some help please? I push the power button on and the Acer screen comes on straight away with Del:Enter setup f12:Boot up. The only way i can get it to start normally into xp is if i plug in my phone to it before i start it up. Any ideas what i can do. Thanks.

What options do you get on F12? Choose the hard drive.
If this is not default then go into the BIOS (F2??) and change it....Neil0 -
Hi,
I don't get any options come up,the page just stays on the Acer page. Nothing will happen no matter what key is pressed? However if i plug in my phone the xp homepage will come up and the computer is normal,should i press the f12 when i have the phone plugged in. Thanks.0 -
