On my old disk 60GB i have 5 partitions:

1. partition Windows 2000 prof.
2. partition Windows XP prof <=== production, here
is the problem!
3. partition Windows 2000 srv
4. partiion fpr programms
5. partition ...

Now, i have change the old disk to a bigger (160GB) disk.

I have copied all Data.

Partition 1 started very well and i can login and work with them.
Partition 3 started very well and i can login and work with them.
Parttion 2 (XP) is still standing with a screen of Windows XP. But not a
login screen is not comming up.

After a long time i found that the file \system32\config\system have
everything to do with my problem.

The new disk is the reason for my problem. That's fact. Why are the Windows
2000 partions working very well and XP not?

  How to make external HD spind down while inactive?         


Author: Serge Skysi

My ready-made externals do that , but one that I put in a 3d party enclosure
won't, and keeps spinning even when the 'puter's powered down. Is there any
utility that would monitor an expernal HD and spin it down while enactive?
Thanks.

  Disk boot failure         


Author: irina2828

Hello

I have a problem since this morning, because yesterday my computer was
working just fine. After I push the power button the first screen(the
screen where my IDE and SATA devices are listed) took about 1-2 minutes
to appear. I could see the memory specifications (like the header of the
screen), but it took 1-2 minutes to display my HDD and my DVD-ROM. And
then, when it was supposed to start loading Windows, I got the message:
"Disk boot failure. Insert system disk and press enter".

I thought it was my hard disk and I had one brand new, unformatted,
available, so I replaced the HDD with this new one. The error was still
the same, of course, because it had nothing on it, like I said.

I inserted a Win XP cd and I managed to install it on my new HDD. At
every restart I had to wait 1-2 minutes to see the first screen. After
installing was complete I restarted the computer (the CD no longer in,
so it had to boot from HDD) and...the same "disk boot failure" error.

I have 2 IDE ports on my motherboard, so I tried both of them, I tried
with another IDE cable, but nothing seems to work.

Any ideas, please ? I don't have another motherboard to test if that is
the problem.

  XP stuck on the Welcome screen

Last month I had a serious problem with XP which I want to share with
you all

Due to a virus attach everytime when I log on to windows it shows me a
msg box displaying *"Virusscan.vb is not found"* , I just press OK
button & it went fine. As I am using Bitdefender AV I searched the
reports & found a reg entry gets modified by the virus, I deleted the
entry but backed up the registry in d drive prior to making changes.

The next time when I logged on to windows it get stuck up in the
welcome screen displaying *\"LOADING YOUR SETTINGS & THEN SAVING YOUR
SETTINGS\"*, finally I have to reinstall XP on my SATA hdd, does anyone
have a solution & how can I replace my registry with the backed up
registry. Pls help...............

my pc wont see my vx6000 webcam. I see on forums others are having the same
problem. It sees a "usb20" webcam when I connect the unit. I have uninstalled
and reinstalled the latest software, as well as trying older software, but
Windows always sees the cam as a "usb20". Have tried the microsoft email
support, which doesnt work by the way. Anybody got any ideas on this issue?

  BSOD after installing new WD3200AAKS drives -why ?         


Author: eatmoreoats
Date: May 10, 2008 02:32

Hi,

I just replaced my hard drives with 2 new Western Digital Caviar SE16
WD3200AAKS 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb drives from Newegg.
They are installed as a RAID 0 mirror pair using the mobo's nVidia
Chipset RAID controller. During XP install I hit f6, stuff my floppy
with the raid drivers in etc and the install works fine. Then when I
come to boot XP I get a blue screen of death with a STOP 0x0000007B
error (about removing any newly installed hard drives or hard drive
controllers etc).

Whats the most likely cause ? Is it a h/w incompatibility issue ?
Driver issue ? A bad drive ?

I've a ASUS P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe mobo. Prior to these WD3200AAKS
disks, I had a pair of Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200KS 320GB
7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb disks in raid 0 which worked ok.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Dom
