My copy registered and checked for XP Pro SP3 does not start after changing the motherboard. Second problem is that I can't find my original install of XP Pro disc.

After failing to find the source of reliable performance from my PC, I decided to bite the bullet and replace the motherboard, memory and the CPU. I installed a triple base 435 Athlon and a motherboard Gigabyte MA74GMT. Awarded PC again started the first time - but Windows will not, I get a number of options but none work - safe mode brings up several lines of messages on the partition of multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0).

A previous post suggested that a similar message meant some kind of malware but if I replace the old motherboard, processor and memory Windows works very well - in fact I use it now.

Do I have an option but to reinstall Windows from a CD? Otherwise I have a problem - I can't find the installation discs for each piece of software except my Windows XP Pro! I do repair discs?

Thanks for your help.

    You can set the default BIOS ONLY inside the BIOS access BIOS by pressing F2 or at the beginning of the initialization of the order

    But I doubt that this problem is related to the BIOS.
    Maybe it s just a simple bad luck that this problem happened exactly after change something in the BIOS.

  • XP pro do not start after changing the Boot.ini file

    The problem is that my C: partition Windows 7
    D: has XP Pro

    These should be considered right resp. partitions 1 and 2?

    I wanted to first XP pro to start the default partition.

    A few days ago, I made a change to the boot.ini file. But since XP Pro was not starting at all.

    I tried XP Pro to start first that the default partition.

    Given that XP Pro and my D: drive have not been starting, I consulted the boot.ini file in C:, Windows 7 partition and I changed the order (i.e. partition No.) in the boot.ini file and saved it to the required location, i.e. D:/WINDOWS/pss.
    through my drive C: of work, i.e. the partition of Windows 7, but it still does not work because apparently even though I save here, the actual values and the paths of the partition are not actually be changed on the system. I confirmed this by going into the CMD shell switching to D: and by running the command D: > bootcfg.
    Apparently any values I save in the boot.ini file that I save as a text file or "All files" in D:/WINDOWS/pss/it does not actually change in the system because whenever I run the command bootfg values are remaining still and not able to be changed, because apparently it is not saved in XP Pro and the D : partition. No matter what I do and what I put in the boot.ini file to access the values through the windows 7 partition, the values that bootcfg returns me are always the same and he refuses to change the name of path or anything else. No matter what orders, I also put in bootcfg himself.

    These are the values that bootcfg gives me:
    default: multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS

    Boot entries:
    Boot entry ID: 1
    Friendly name of operating system: MS Windows XP Professional
    Path: multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS
    The operating system load options: / noexecute = OPTIN/FASTDETECT/usepmtimer

    My XP Pro partition is simply not booting, and it of my main partition and has all my work. It is imperative that it starts.

    My Windows CD is also not start because apparently my DVD drive does not work properly, I had the anti malware threatfire (ThreatFire) installed on my XP D:Windows program disk but have uninstalled just in case it was blocking my changes to the system.

    On C:Win7, I put the default operating system option in the Advanced tab for Win7 and the D:XP Pro to XP Pro, when he was the starter and work. Now I can only access my files D:XP Pro Player C:Win7. But XP is not just start. What shd - I do? Thks.

    I don't have a very practical windows CD but my CD/DVD drive is not read and does not properly.

  • Satellite Pro S300-120 does not start after replacing the CMOS battery

    Hello

    My friends laptop - a S300-120 - was having a few problems.

    I replaced some parts about this before, including a screen crack with no problems.

    However, he began to refuse to start saying "out of battery CMOS, Press F1 to enter setup". Of course you would have to do this, set the date and time, except & restart only to get the same message. We have replaced the CMOS battery with a with the same serial number and now the laptop will not boot.

    It does one of two things.

    It is one) seems to turn, turn to the top disk & CD player, cooling fan is 100%, then flashes the POWER ON led once, twice by orange, and then green to 1/2 second intervals, with no response from the keyboard or LCD.

    Or (b) turns on, turntable, does not turn up to cooling fan, POWER ON witness remains stable, no response from the keyboard or LCD.

    I re-assembled the laptop several times & can not find all the missing fittings or obvious signs of damage.

    The only thing I can think is that the motherboard has been damaged - somehow find replacements is delicate.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    (> It is a) appears to turn on, turn the disk & CD player, cooling fan goes to 100% and then flashes him

    POWER ON led once, twice by orange, and then green to 1/2 second intervals, with no response from the keyboard or LCD.

    In my opinion, it looks like a problem with the motherboard :(
    Eventually, you will need to replace the mobo ;(

  • I have an ASUS M4A88TD-M/USB3 motherboard. The problem is that I can't find any windows 8 compatible LAN drivers for it.

    Problems of Windows 8 pilots.

    I just installed Windows 8 preview of developer on a virtual machine, I have an ASUS M4A88TD-M/USB3 motherboard. The problem is that I can't find any windows 8 compatible LAN drivers for it. All solutions?

    Given that Windows 8 has not been released yet not all drivers will work with him. Some drivers are very precise on the version of operating system, you may need to wait until they release the pilots of Windows 8 (if they make it to your model).

    If the drivers do not install, try their installation in compatibility mode.

    Troubleshoot Compatibility

    This can help with some (but not all the) programs/drivers:
    (1) uninstall the program, if it is already installed. Then when install you / reinstall instead of double click on the Setup file, right click and select 'resolve compatibility issues.
    (2) then click on 'Try recommended settings' and in the next window, click on "Start the Program" to install it.
    (3) after he set up see if it works properly. Note: some programs are perhaps not able to run in Windows 8.

    Hello

    As you are able to boot to the desktop in Mode safe, it means that the third-party application prevents the computer from starting in normal mode. To check you can configure the computer to clean start State and then try to boot into normal mode and check what is happening. To set up its own start-up follow the link below.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    If the problem does not continues when the computer is in the clean start State follow the steps listed to identify which application is causing the problem.

    Note: When you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 7 article to start on normal startup.
