I'm working on a friends Dimension 4300 to replace a defective HDD, and when
I try and set the CD drive
as the first boot device in the BIOs, in order to reinstall the OS,
nothing's there, no floppy, hard drive or
CD-ROM, just the numbers 1-3, but no description of any of the devices.
How do I get the BIOs to recognize the CD-ROM drive?
