Comment: I'm using a Presario 3005us laptop without a floppy. I need to start up in DOS to modify my registry settings. I have a Cruzer USB drive that I put a bootdisk on and my computer doesnt recognize the drive. There are no boot order settings in my bios for USB drive only HD, CD, Floppy, and Network. The USB drive isn't being seen or recognized when I try to reboot. Any ideas? Thanks
