Hey ok my hard drive died so I went and got a new one. 89.99 for a 20 gig I reinstalled everything So far I have gotten 3 blue screens of death saying windows install was corrupted that it needs to be re installed. Then when I go to a folder or try to delete anything in a folder the whole damn system locks up. I didnt have this probem before the hard drive died on me so IM Totaly lost. I ran scan disk several times no errors I ran a program within windows to fine any croupt files nada

I get several program errors as well. Im trying everything and anything so I dont have to re install everything and waste another 8 hours ARGH!#@$ Right now all I can do is get on the web not icq or anything like that. THIS is weird.

I have 312megs of ram pIII 550 3d proccessor any idea what is going on? I even set the graphic accalerater down twice it still does it. I can not delete SHIT@!#$ So any help on this WOULD HELP ME ALOT... Thanks

TOM

ztik · 06-26-2002, 09:03 PM

yeah, just a little... Just re-install without a format, takes like 20 min

edmo · 06-26-2002, 09:04 PM

Simplify the problem. Take out all the unnecesary shit like the 3d card and soundcards, etc. Then only one stick of ram. Then boot up via cd rom to windows install and see if it's stable or if there's any errors. The only possible things that could be broken are CPU, MB, RAM, or HDD. If you get errors or crashes you should replace one component, boot, check. If you can install fine from here you should then get windows up and running. After which you add one component at a time until shit breaks. You can find your culprit this way.

If you don't want to reinstall but just delete files then it could be a whole other set of problems. Most likely via sharing if you're using nt or xp. what does the error say?

Thanks man its like run dll files I havent gotten the blue screen today that was all day yesterday. When I try to delete things like when im done my galleries for clients it freezes up when I alt ctrl del it shuts down AND No I only do it once I dont do it twice. its freaking weird I cant delete anything from the recyle bin either it just kills everything where I have to reboot

Ok so I can reinstall wikndwos without re formating it etc... will it keep all my programs like photoshop dreamweaver and everything I have loaded? Or will I need to reinstall them as well.

Va2k · 06-26-2002, 09:11 PM

Oh yea my cox cable wont get the gateway addy either and there is some weird blue box with EN on my task bar it says its for the key board freaking weird ok im going to go and reinstall windows without reformating I wish I would of thought about that errr lol

Sly_RJ · 06-26-2002, 09:15 PM

I had a hell of the time installing Cox the first time. I wish I remembered what I did to finally get it up and running.

This is off topic, but isn't $90 for 20GB expensive?

90 USD = 140ish Canadian = 60 to 75 gig hd

$90 for 20GB expensive

OUCH!!!!

We just got 4 - 80g WDs for 40 a pop after a 10 buck rebate each from WD and 20. each at the register (Compusa) a few weeks back. :D

Reinstall windows over itself (everything stays put) then go to the upgrade MS page and upgrade and do all the patches over again. If you didn't do those then you are boffo. (Blue Thunder Lives) Remember to restart after EACH upgrade or patch. Defragging doesn't hurt every few upgrades too.

Might be that rinky compaq doesn't like that large of HD too. So you may need to break it down to 2 - 10g or 4-5g drives with fdisk. NEVER NEVER use the BS utilities that some drives come with!!!!

Take the time to do it right the first time or deal with the h*ll you make for yourself by being skippy

Open the EN from the taskbar and see what it is. I remember seeing that before on a clients system but don't remember what it is. Easy enough to remove that EN from the startup if its not needed.

Cogitator · 06-26-2002, 09:35 PM

Hate to break it to ya, but you might have a bad disk controller.

glad its all fixed for you tom

dipshit moron retard · 06-27-2002, 12:55 AM

tom check with this board before you make purchases like that, $80-90 for a 20gb hard drive is really bad, you could've easily gotten a 60 gig drive and possibly a 80gig one for that price online including shipping
