ok so I tried to do the repair and it copies over all the files and then gets to the part where it reboots, it reboots and then just comes back to the Welcome to Setup screen instead of proceeding with the repair. There is a prompt to remove any disks in drive a: but it doesn't say anything...

sata drive, it's the only drive in the box now and its intalled where the primary used to be. The BIOS sees it, just doesn't recognize it as a bootable device. I am now in the process of running a windows repair, and it recognizes the drive and that there is a valid copy of windows on the...

used drive image pro to clone the drive. It is the same box, it does not recognize it as bootable and after failing to find any bootable devices says insert bootable device and press enter. This made me think the drive was empty so i moved it to another tower to have a look and all the data is...

So to "simplify" things in case my HD died I have been making a cloned image of it. Clone c: to d: my thoughts being if c: fails then just unplug it put d: in its place and voila we're back. I can see all my data and files on the cloned drive using another PC but I cannot boot from it...

windows will not start up in any mode. the scenario that caused the issue was an It infastructure upgrade to include this profile to an active directory. the procedure was to add the windows client to a domain for a windows xp professional workstation. This process included a Windows USMT user...

XP professional,system hangs on reboot. Reboot and the first windows splash screen goes by ok then the light blue window comes up that would normally prompt me for a login afterwards comes up and it just hangs. The mouse cursor still moves around and if I use alt-tab to switch between programs...

Hey Guys, So here's the deal I have an old clunker of a PC. I can't afford a new one cause I have to spend all my money on gas so I can get to work so I can make money to buy gas...weird how that works. Anyhow my PC decided to stop working. It comes up and does the memory check but then...

Hey Guys, I am running a small network of 6 computers. The "server" box is a Windows 2000 box that has file and print sharing enabled on it to allow access to the printers in the office. It is also being used for internet access for ALL of the computers. We can't get ADSL, Cable, or line of...

Try changing the permissions for the user to Admin and see if it works. If it does then you know that it has to do with permissions and if it still doesn't work then it could just be the result of a different user. If you throw the Office 97 CD in the drive while you are logged in as the user...

The adaptor is a Targus PA088 and they don't even acknowledge ever making the product. The GPS is a Trimble SV8+ and is a stand alone box that spits out serial data. If USB to serial adaptor is not a possibility then does anyone know of a better solution, being that serial ports have become...

The disable COM doesn't help. I can disable the device the first time (not uninstall)but that only fixes the problem of not being able to use the pointer. Once windows recognizes there is data coming it it says hey there is a serial mouse loads it then disables it. Because it has already...

Hey Guys, Ok so I have XP Pro. I have a GPS module hooked up to it that Windows keeps detecting as a serial mouse. I have tried adding the /NoSerialMouse and /NoSerialMice line to the boot.ini file and it didn't seem to do anything. I have also tried making the change in Microsoft article...

Targus no longer supports it. The only driver available is the one that came with it. The device works perfectly until I reboot. Once that happens the described problem occurs. What kind of PCMCIA card are you using? I have a Socket version that doesn't work at all. I have used several...
