Hi all, just joined as I have a problem...
About a month ago my amilo A series froze up and refused to boot windows xp. It was working in safe mode, but I decided to try and reinstall windows. The installation froze at about 36 minutes to go, while it was 'installing devices'.
I've given it to a guy to fix and he says it's not a hardware problem. He wants to put the old BIOS onto a flash drive and try and install a different version on to see if it works.
Is this risky in anyway? and is it likely to work? I don't know too much about the inner workings of computers so I wanted some advice first.
