Title: Windows Re-Install Nightmare!
Post by: Radders on February 22, 2004, 07:29:55 PM

Oh God... When I bought my Sony PCG-SR7K I thought the fact it didn't have a CD or floppy drive was a great idea.

Now I need to reinstall Windows 2000, I'm in a bit of trouble. I've got  a Network PCMCIA card, another laptop with a CD drive and an external HP 6200 USB CD drive.

Can anyone think of a way I can get this working?

Cheers

i couldn't find hp 6200 usb cd as hp product so please be more specific

sony's pcg-sr7k has usb port so if your usb is compatible win win2k (check on www.microsoft.com/hcl ) you can just plug your external cd to your laptop and install win2k from the cd.
