    Hello Everyone,
    I just got a used Fujitsu T4010d. I got it without CD-Rom and without any OS installed. As i found out the computer does not recognize any USB devices. I have a USB cd-rom but the computer does not recognize it.

    Is there any way to install OS on the computer?

    Thanks, Taras

    If you have a second laptop and if you can remove the HDD and put in your second laptop, then install an operation system witch you like, and put it back again, then install all drivers that needs.

    Other choice is, to buy an internal optical driver, they are cheep.

    I thought windows, for example, can not be installed on a HDD like that.

    Where can i get an internal CD-Rom?

    Why can't? Sure it can. You need to remove it and put on another laptop. If they both are Sata or Ata.

    An internet CD-ROM you can search on the web. Here in my country they sell. Don't know about yours. http://www.e-shop.gr/show_per.phtml?id=PER.331701

    Do you have second laptop? If yes, and if you could remove the cd-rom from it and put it on T4010D to use it. Should works
