I've got my neighbors Asus EEE PC 1005HAB I'm trying to get working. Im trying to install windows 7 starter from a usb drive. I can boot the netbook to the usb and load the windows setup files, but I cannot install windows on the hard drive because (This omputer's hardware may not support booting to this disk). Here's the confusing part.if I go into the bios I can set the HD to boot, but when I plug the usb stick in the option to boot to the HD disappears.

It's as if the usb took place of the HD while its plugged in. I have an options to load drivers from within windows setup to get the HD working.

I have asus eee pc 1005ha. It came with win. You can get a Windows XP CD or an Asus restore CD and put it on a bootable USB Flash Drive and boot the Flash Drive and reinstall Windows.

I've already called asus and the tier 1 techy didnt answer my questions and wouldn't transfer me to upper level. I've got the.iso for windows 7 starter made for the netbook (no there is not a retail.iso for starter) It's already loaded to boot on the usb and it works perfect. I cannot get the netbook to boot from my usb stick and recognize the hard drive as a boot device at the same time. If the usb is in the computer the hd is no longer a boot device in the bios options.

I've tried the hd in ide and ahci and it has no effect. I believe I need a bios update/upgrade because asus said they did not support usb installation and only told me to hook up an external optical drive or use the image recovery software that is no longer on this hard drive. There is no recovery media. The new asus netbooks do not ship with any recovery discs. The only recovery option is there Image Recovery that is partitioned on the hard drive.

That partition has been deleted. I am using a copy of windows 7 starter 32 (the operating system the netbook ships with). I had to find my own copy since obviously there is no other way to fix this pc. Basically without and external dvd drive I am unable to proceed further because their bios does not allow me to install ANY operating system from a USB drive. Bottom line is I need to know how I can get the eee pc bios to recognize the hard drive and the usb drive at the same time.

I'm trying to re-install to factory settings for the Asus eee pc 1005HAB via USB flash drive since I do not own an external optical drive for the recovery disk the computer came with. The F9 Recovery will not work.

I have successfully created an iso disk image using the 'ISODisk' program and loaded it onto my 8GB flashdrive using 'ISO to USB'. Best Service Chris Hein Horns Vol 1 Keygen. I can then boot this flashdrive.

The Asus recovery CD/DVD program loads up and i can choose a partition or whole HD to recover to. Then a popup appears and prompts 'Please insert the Recovery CD/DVD and then click OK!' Is there any way to get around this without finding an external optical drive for the recovery disk? To recap, this is for the factory settings with Windows 7 Starter that it came with.

Not the XP OS that some versions came with. What did you end up doing Corbin1091?

I am having the same issue. Can it be done with a USB drive? There should be a recovery partition on Asus eeepc. Have you try hitting F9 a few time continously prior to restarting the netbook & prior to POST? (power on self test) Once done, it should bring up windows boot manager, next hit F8 & choose repair your computer, as this would give you the option of repair startup problems, run diagnostic or restore your system Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
