possibly short circuit occurring... might be problem with keyboard itself (that should be a CRU) or it could be something located directly under the keyboard.

how are you doing the recovery? for best results, take the hard drive out and hook it up to another computer via a usb-sata/ide cable. then run recuva on it.

do you have DOSbox on your mac? but that's irrelevant to the fix. after you download a zip file, navigate to it in finder. right click on it, select 'get info'. 2/3 of the way down it says 'open with'. select the application you want to use (assuming you have …

right on, zelkea. i'll just add that, once you access the bios, turn off the splash screen and turn off 'quick boot'. that first will do the obvious, while the second will run a full POST *and* give you more time to access the BIOS if you want to.

check asus's website or google to see what a single beep means. that beep you hear is a 'beep code'. it can mean different things depending on if it's a long or short beep (which is kind of subjective unless you know what you're listening for). considering that you're having …

that first connection shoumd probably be your LAN connection, but you didnt list it as eth0 like one would expect... and it doesnt have an IP address. check your network manager, make sure it's set up appropriately... that is, for dhcp/manual... also dns servers and appropriate subnet mask. you mentioned …

1) you can't (legally). Buy it from an apple store or apple authorized reseller for $29. It's an entire operating system for less than $30... literally can't beat it without stealing. 2) That is technically and generally illegal. Look somewhere else for that instructional. 3) There's a windows utility called …

i'd look up the beep codes online for your model of computer. the pattern of beeps tells you what the problem is. additionally, the display *should* work to some extent. is the monitor connected through VGA or DVI (or HDMI for that matter) ? what model of computer is this?

i actually just ran into a problem similar to this with my brother's laptop. one possible fix is going into the BIOS and changing the hard drive's mode to IDE. Forgive me, i forget exactly which setting it was... something to do with AHCI...

+1 to renan. this is why frequent backups, frequent virus scans, and intelligent web browsing are necessary. don't be too attached to your current OS install... you should always be willing to reformat your HDD and reinstall. destruction and reconstruction are always faster and more satisfying than repair.

reset your modem. they save the MAC address of the device they're connected to, so whenever you change that device, it needs to be reset.

assuming that you conducted an exhaustive search online for the drivers, then it's possible that the network adapter isn't compatible with vista for some reason. was it working with win7? looking on toshiba's site, it looks like it only shipped with 64-bit windows 7. do you have windows xp available …

reaching far back here... but i think the boot record is being pointed to wherever the GRUB was. i'd start by booting with a win98 boot disk to the DOS prompt (i use usb floppy drive), then using fixboot and/or fixmbr.

depends on if it's the upgrade or the original install disk. if it's the upgrade, as it seems to be, you need the appropriate OS (98 or 98SE... check documentation for the proper upgrade route) already installed.
