Hi guys
I`ve got that oriole problem.

I had a problem with Windows 7 unable to boot with another Ubuntu partition. I took ours to be able to back up all the files in windows using a XP live disk. After the back up i had all my files safe but the grab has been damaged and no OS wanted to load (error 17).

After few attempts, my MBR sectors has been erased including the partition table.
So now i`ve got a lonely 250 gb unallocated partition.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop (2GB RAM, 100GB HDD) with Windows XP MCE 2005 (SP2) running.
Recently I had to to do an in-place install as I was getting BSOD on trying to enter safe mode. Everything went on fine without a glitch.
But now I do see a hit on my laptop's performance. It takes longer to boot and hand over cursor control after booting.

I recently got myself a new keyboard, the fairly expensive Razer Tarantula. One of the key features of this keyboard is its so called Anti-Ghosting, which is more precisely described as 10-key rollover over USB. (k-key rollover denotes the ability of keyboards to correctly handle a situation in which k keys are pressed simultaneously, independent of the combination pressed) However, to use it, you need to know the secret code!

Hello there first things first I really appreciate this site it has helped me countless times,
Iam wondering if I can use my mybook 1tb ext drive internally i believe it is a sata drive and i currently running ide cables any idea? I would like to change due to long waits on moving large files. it takes roughly 30min to move 14gb,

Hi, to everyone i write for first time and here is my problem: Before some time my laptop went down and the company which i bought it replaced it with a new one. But i kept the hard disk i had. When i plug the hd to the new laptop ( same specifications as the previous i had ) and tried to run Windows XP BSODs appeared either in safe mode or normal mode or even previous known good configuration. I know that the partitions are still in the hard disk and hard disk works well as i connected to a pc via a usb cable and managed to see my files.

I have two computers. One is at least 6 years old adn the other is about 4. Both hard drives are two years old. I installed both in one computer. I set One as a slave and the other a master. When I turn on the computer Only one OS system shows up. Is there a way that I can choose which OS system I want to boot up. One is Windowns ME and the other is Windows 98. I use these for music and projects instead of my new computer Windows XP. Do I need to change the BIOS is some way so I can switch from one OS to other OS? Sure need your help. Thanks

So I am building a computer for a friend, and my brother is usually around to help me out, but this is the first one i am trying to build all on my own. anyways, its got an ASUS P5NSLI mobo, and when i first booted up it said !!error awdflash.exe is not found with cd rom!! when i was trying to boot and install windows. it also said "BIOS rom checksum error" so i made a ms-dos start up disk, and copied the asus award bios flash utility and my mobo's most recent bios bin file(which i renamed to P5NSLI.bin) onto the boot disk.

hey, i have recently been advised to reinstall windows and i am getting the BSoD message when attempting to install windows. this is due to my computer's SATA driver. this requires a floppy with the drivers on it.
however, i do not know how to get these 32bit files which are needed:
jraid (security catalog)
Jraid (system file)
txtsetup.oem
xraid_f

my motherboard type is ms-6741
i do have a floppy drive, so all i need is the files. does anyone know where i can get these?

edit: i'm trying to install windows xp with service pack 2 if thats any help

For about 3 months I tried to get Asus to fix what acted like a keyboard error on my Eee PC 1000HD/XP.

The cursor (character position) would jump around with no pattern. There were never character errors (wrong character) just in the wrong place.

I sent it to their repair depots in Indiana and Califoria. Each time it came back at NTF (No Trouble Found) In California they even replaced the keyboard. No change.

Then I noticed that the touchpad was far more sensitive than needed.

I downloaded a driver update from the touchpad manufacturers website and that fixed it.
