weird computer question
« on: December 09, 2005, 04:33:25 AM »
Hi there guys.

I have a question concerning my moms new compaq......Well I did usemsconfig to clear up the startup speed but since then with every restart I get a dos screen which asks me which I want to go into. Compaq recovery or Microsoft XP Home and everytime I press that but when I reboot I still get the same question.

Anyway to fix this?

Stuck key? Try jiggling the F8 key & other F keys to make sure they're not stuck.
