Ok...so its on my laptop...so i'm not too sure about the internal cables. The bios detects the cd drive as a place to be able to boot something from. I previously formatted the drive and left the amount of space it is supposed to need...I then installed windows from the original windows boot disk....and the disk i am trying to boot from now is an original as well..it came with the laptop. The only thing I am now unsure of is if its a bootable disc or not..The disc came alone..and the only thing i had to work with was the .pdf file that is also on the cd....and that didn't tell me much at all...I researched it a bit and the company that developed it doesnt give any support for it(none that I see) and everything else I find is just a variation of the same thing I have or is about instantly turning the computer on and off...which this program doesn't do..this one runs the linux partition so you can save a bit of battery life when watching or listening to media being played in the disk drive...so I am at a loss. If there is a way that I can make the disk bootable..if it isnt...that would be possible to do as well.
