Re: P5WD2

Since no one else has answered you about this, I might ask you something. I
have never used the F6 option, so I haven't seen it work, but it would seem
logical that once Windows had done it's formatting and transferred some
files that is would not ask again. My question is, when it reboots do you
select to boot from CD or just let it go. If you let it go, does it cause
an error because it can't see the SATA hard drive?
