    When I do everything that's said online my laptop does not come up with HDD recovery can you hi elp I'm getting a bit ???????

    I'm not so sure I understand exactly what you're trying to do either ... the more info you supply the better E.g., exact model, which OS you are running etc etc... but ... Unless you have used a tool that actually can wipe the hard drive clean, E.g., DBAM (Dariks Boot and Nuke) or something...

    Sharing Vacation Photos

    Yes - you could use one of several options and the only problem I can envisage is the final size of all the image files I.e., how much space you are going to need to store all the photos. Free options include Dropbox (2GB free), Microsoft OneDrive (5GB free) and Mega(50GB free) cloud storage...

    10 won't boot

    Sorry but I don't get it??? In the first sentence you are saying that the hard drive is erased. In the second sentence you are saying that none of the advanced options do anything. If you are getting advanced options then your hard drive is not erased (completely anyway) ... so which is it...

    Laptop BIOS won't detect boot drive USB

    OK - no disk drive - got ya. But that doesn't stop you from adding Plop boot option via EasyBCD as suggested ... this is an alternative which I feel may be worth a shot ... nothing ventured - nothing gained.

    Laptop BIOS won't detect boot drive USB

    Have a go at using Plop Linux to see if it's USB boot option will allow the USB boot. You can do this in a couple of ways including using EasyBCD to add Plop or alternatively burn it to disk (if of course you have a Disk drive) ... by the sound of it you are obviously not going to be able to...

    Hi there, First of all I will be honest with you and let you know that I do not own one of the models you are talking about. That being said, I will assume that when you say "clickpad" that you are actually referring to the touchpad - if this is correct then it seems that with a brief Google...

    How many times do I restart the laptop before I'd see the Auto repair option?

    If there is a problem then it should automatically go to the Advance Startup Options after two consecutive failed startup attempts. However, a forced shutdown two or three times while the machine is trying to boot should get you in there. I.e., Forced shutdown = hold the Power button down...
