I have an Acer Aspire one, ZG5 laptop.
It was given to me because someone tried to flash the BIOS and now the laptop will not boot to the hard drive. After the Acer page shows,it shows a blank page after a currsor blinks 3 time in the upper left corner. When I tried to " recover" it, I got an error pop up that says:
File \minint\system32\KDCOM.DLL could not be loaded. The error code is 4
Setup cannot continue. Press any key to exit.
Since the laptop doesn't have a cd rom, is there a Windows XP that will load from a flash drive ?
Any and all help will get greatly appreciated !!!
