Saturday, February 9th, 2008 Note: This update CD is now testing phase, although several have been tested in the test machine, but it may fail to update (that is, failed to update it, no harm), if there are problems, please let me know. Why is there such an upgrade CD? 1.

Ready, you come up with the USB drive, connected to a good start Hello! Steps: 1. BIOS by using F9, or restore the ASUS CD-ROM way to restore the Eee PC into the factory settings. This case is to restore CD to restore the reduction ... in the first partition, the second partition will be deleted (it must have a good backup!) 2. ... Posted in teaching-related | 31 Comments »
