ZG5 freezes during eRecovery

seejac · 2011-04-24

Hi Guys, New here and hope some one out there might be able to help... I have an AOA110 running Windows XP and have had a few issues with it booting, so I decided to run the eRecovery software, when I do this I get the 'Windows is loading files' followed by the the menu's for Language etc etc are displayed and I go through the motions clicking through the various 'screens' I then select Restore to factory settings. This is where the problems start... The DOS window appears (x:\rytools\napp.exe) Disk 0 is selected as the disk and partition 1 is the selected partition and brings up the % complete... then the whole thing just freezes at 0% and all I can do is a hard shut down I have even tried booting Ubuntu Netbook Remix from a USB drive but again pretty much nothing and in all instances the hard drive indicator is on, but static Any ideas?
