hello everyone, I am having a weird problem with my laptop. I have a HP G7-1333NR
I have a broken screen and i have completely removed it, I have it plugged in to an external monitor.
I had windows 7 but wanted to make a fresh install because of a few viruses slowing me down and too much junk to manually remove everything.
I did the install from the setup.exe and because I cannot really see the boot screen, everything went well until i restarted , something went corrupt or might messed up something during the partitioning so it wouldn't boot from HDD anymore.
I did some research on how to boot from BIOS which i have to do blindly because my BIOS will not load in the external monitor.
I tried Fn + F4 as indicated on my keyboard but with no success, inserting an original Windows 7 DVD will load but unfortunately the screen won't even show up on my external andI keep trying the hotkeys but still nothing.
Here is the weirdest part, I tried booting from USB with Ubuntu and it loads on the external right away at the loading screen , then it brings me to the desktop and i was able to successfully install it and did a complete format, now the computer runs just fine booting.
However this is not the OS of my choice for my music production so I need my windows to work, I tried also making a bootable windows 7 USB which I know i can blindly load through bios because I've done so with Ubuntu.
I've tried two different monitors with no success, I've also tried to manual unplug the laptop monitor via the motherboard cable .to maybe force it to load external for BIOS but nothing.
Please, I am very desperate, I am completely underfunded which is why I cannot get a new screen or let alone another computer. Sorry for my english
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
