hi all
new here so please be gentle
i have a HP mini 210-4125 with the Intel Atom CPU N2800 1.86GHz x 2
500gb seagate hard drive
original OS was windows 7 starter 32-bit
4gb kingstone ddr3 module
bios is F.02
system board id 338D
have installed from a disk ( genuine purchase certified) windows 7 professional 64 bit
my problem is that it will load and work fantastic when the external DVD drive has the OS disc in and i use the bios to load DVD as 1st boot but ignore pressing any key and it goes strait into loading windows , i can then disconnect the DVD drive and use it perfectly , even able to install the elusive graphics soft ware ,
the netbook performs faultlessly
but i can not keep using the external DVD just to boot the unit
i have a second mini hard drive with windows 7 32-bit installed and when fitted the unit boots up with no changes made
can you help please
thank you
jonboy
