    Hi guys... i'm having a big problem!

    Yesterday, I bought an 150ab with linpus.
    I wanted Xp, so i made a bootable flashdrive (i don't have an external dvd drive) and everything went wrong..

    but ok... no problem, i'm gonna buy an external dvd drive today.
    In the meantime, my dad tryed to run the recovery dvd. He copied all the files from the cd to a flash drive, and everything went great!
    The recovery was succesfully completed, and he asked me to reboot. So we did.

    And then..... NOTHING!! only black screen, no bios, no boot selection menu, NOTHING!!!
    It's totally f*cked up... is there anything i can do now?

    If there isn't... i'm gonna exhange it for a new one. maby i got a bad recovery cd or something.

    Yes.
    The bios corruption issue was not related to your USB recovery attempt.
