erm dude, i dont really get it. I insert the windows cd, restart the lappie, then boot from cd..it will enter the blue screen for installation. I don't see any f8 there wo. I tried to enter windows and run the installation, no repair also wo.
The only repair related thingy i see during the boot setup is the Automated Windows Recovery or smtg liddat..hmmm
