    My sisters netbook is now booting into neither Android or windows (gets stuck on the loading screen for both) so somehow I need to reinstall windows. Obviously it doesn't have a CD drive and we don't have a USB CD drive so what's the best way to install something from boot?

    You can load up Windows or Linux on to a memory stick, then install from that. Personally I use this but I only have a 2GB one so I rely on the disk for Windows. Hope this helps! :thumb:

    Don't by any chance have an XBOX 360 HD-DVD around do you?

    Most people don't even consider they have a USB DVD drive for this purpose until you point out the old XBOX 360 HD-DVD doubles as an external PC USB HD-DVD!
