gnu grub version 0.97( 634k lower /523264k upper memory)
I formatted the hard drive and after RESTAR GNU GRUB version 0.97 is the message (634k lower / upper 523264k memory)
[Minimah -like BASH line editing is supported. For the first word tab lists Possible command completions. anywherre else TAB lists the Possible completions of a device / filename] what can I do to solve the problem
You will need to be a little more specific about what you have done and what you expected.

Windows most likely installed it's bootloader to usb.
Go to your boot menu & select the usb drive. Most likely f8 during boot will get you to boot menu.
i do already this and nothing....i start my laptop and immediately appears GNU GRUB version 0.97 is the message (634k lower / upper 523264k memory)[Minimal -like BASH line editing is supported. For the first word tab lists Possible command completions. anywherre else TAB lists the Possible completions of a device / filename]
