Ok well I need some help

It started off when I was going to do a system recovey with the disks because i wanted a fresh start. There were 6 cds in the whole package. So I did the first four cds with no problem then I cannot find disk 5 and disk 6 so it was late and I decided to go to sleep and look for them tomorrow. Now the bad part comes that night my power shut off

Now I am stuck with a computer that when i start it it doesnt read any cds the only thing that comes up is HP Invent and nothing else not the bios not nothing and i cant start the recovery disks again because it doesnt read any disks now

help

Go into the BIOS and select Boot from CD in the Boot options. Save the settings and then try it.

Keep Smiling
It makes them think you're up to something...
