Well that explains the recovery partition issue. You dont have it anymore. Was the HDD formated when it was recieved as a replacement? Chances are it was.
There is no recovery partition anymore. Your only option is disk. I need to know what kind of HDD it is. Can you take it out and see? I suspect it is SATA.
I will find the controller. You will need either a flash (thumbdrive), or usb floppy. Hit F2 and make sure you are set to boot off a FDD/USB before the hard drive.
Again...I really appreciate everything you're doing for me.
I looked up the product info under the account and it has listed WU077 Hard Drive, 80GB, S2, 9.5, 5.4K TSHBA-LEO, however the hard drive I just pulled out is a Fujitsu SATA 80GB model MHZ2080BH G2, Part Number CA07018-B30200DL.
I believe the hard drive had everything already on it when we received it. If I remember correctly, I just popped it in and it went through the entire install itself, but I could be mistaken.
