Advent Netbook - Page 8 Questions & Answers
How do I install a
You have a couple of options. You can search the web for the correct printer driver and download and install it from there or you can go to another computer that has a cd/dvd drive available and transfer the appropriate files from the disc to a flash drive or other removeable media that your Netbook can accept.
The easiest solution would be to download the driver from the web.
If you are having trouble finding the driver on the internet, please post the printer name and model here and we will help you find it.
I hope this helps! If this did help you, please give a thumbs up!
My advent netbook starts up saying Insert Boot
The system is showing signs of issues with the hard drive, so boot to bios and reset defaults and see if the system will boot.
If not, then you will need either a bootable USB drive with you OS image loaded so you can try to attempt repairs or a USB optical drive that you can use to boot to your Operating System.
If you know the keystroke, most newer systems have built in diagnostics (Try the F12 menu) and see if the hard drive has failed.
Boot failure error pxe-61 media
The error PXE-E61: Media test failure usually means the hard diskhas failed or the hard disk needs re-seating or the disk controller is faulty.
First - re-seat the harddisk and reboot the computer. If this does not work then reboot and go to theBIOS configuration to see if the BIOS detects the hard drive. If it doesn'tdetect the hard drive then it could be faulty.
Next - to determine if thehard drive is faulty, remove the hard drive and insert it into an USB hard drive adapter and connect it to a workingcomputer's USB port. If this computer cannot see itas an external hard drive and you cannot open the various folders and files,this confirms the hard drive is faulty.
Then the hard drive needsto be replaced in the computer/laptop, Windows installed and the computer orlaptop's device drivers plus your programs etc. to get a functioningcomputer/laptop again.

How do i turn my
Hello,
To turn the webcam off, you have to press the same buttons again. In your case, press Fn+F11.
If this does not work, check on your keyboard, on the Fs buttons to see where the webcam logo is, then press Fn+(the button with the webcam logo).
Unfortunately I cannot tell what the exact buttons are as you have not provided the laptop model.
Hope this helps.
Windows boot manager failed to
sorry to hear about the problem
I've used easyBCD to repair a windows boot manager, you may have to download it in another working machine, then burn it as bootable cd (using nero or similar image burning software), pop it in and when you start your computer make sure you have your cd/dvd drive unit as the first boot option so you go right into the cd ,
try the following instructions here to see if they may help, post back if you have further questions

In Windows by clicking: Start / All Programs / System Recovery / System Recovery.

I want to restore my Advent 7211 back to factory
You can get another Recovery CD from the laptop manufacturer, otherwise you need a Windows installation CD that matches the Windows version of the Windows label that is attached to the bottom of your laptop. This label also has the product installation code for installing Windows on your laptop.
