• DualBOOT WinXP and Win98

  I tried to do for about 2 weeks, market and trying to get Windows 98SE & Windows XP dualboot correctly. I had success but am still not satisfied. Here's what I tried.

  1st attempt:
  -Essentially have a base with 2 primary partitions drive - a (Win98) one FAT32 NTFS (Windows XP). First, I installed Windows 98 on C: (FAT32), then installed Windows XP later on D: (WinXP). It was all great job for awhile and after some time I suddenly wasn't able to boot in Windows 98. Something had changed during the installation of programs over several days, so I restarted from scratch once again.

  2nd attempt:
  -Basic disk I had on a set of primary partition of 500 MB to active for just Boot (C: FAT32), about 1/3 of a primary partition for Windows 98 (E: FAT32) and about 2/3 of a primary partition for Windows XP (NTFS D :). Of course, I installed on the disks appropriate using C to boot to XP system files and 98. Installed XP first on D: and 2nd Win98 on E: - then I could only start XP again and Windows 98 was not able boot upward as he wanted to BE D: drive because Win98 is unable to see NTFS partition and think that there was nothing there so my boot.ini file were conflicts with that.

  3rd ATTEMPT (successful):
  After frustration, pulling on my hair and such things, I said screw it. I did an active primary partition (2/3 c: FAT32) and a 2nd primary partition (1/3 d: FAT32). So I installed Windows XP on C: first and Win98 on D: - it's all good and dandy except... I want my XP in NTFS security!

  AN IDEA: So right now, I say to myself, screw the partitions, equip a 2nd hard drive (primary slave / primary master). Master on XP NTFS, slave on 98 FAT32 - both primary partitions and can be active (or not?). But now I wonder if even that will work as loads off C: the boot for WinXP/98, and Windows 98 is an atheist, when it comes to NTFS partitions - they simply do not exist.

  ANOTHER IDEA: Find a decent boot loader. I've heard a lot of GRUB, but I wonder if this is the way to go because it seems that GRUB is used mainly for Linux/Unix dualboots.

  Here's WHAT I WANT: I want a WinXP NTFS (for security reasons) and a Win98 FAT32 work. Usually my Windows XP is about 2/3 of the space system and Windows 98 is of about 1/3 the space system.

  For all partitions to dualboot I use a 60 GB so you do the math. I have a spare 40 GB I thought put in Windows 98 separate conflict still further, but for some reason any after my failures, that it doesn't seem like I'm going to avoid conflicts...

  WHY THE TROUBLE? : you can ask - I just want to be able to play old games on Windows 98 with DX8.1 and have a working system of XP for all newer games (which are still old...) - in other words to benostalgic.

  Other questions on the installation made me know.

  PS Wait I will post everything trying to launch BITLOCKER partition Win7 with Bootcamp on my Macbook Pro. This one will be even more interesting...

  Get Ranish Partition Manager and install sound code MBR bootmanager.

  Then, at the prompt "boot HD...", press 1 or 2 to select the boot partition.

  No need to make entries special boot.ini, as boot partitions quite separately from this way.

  Also works for Linux, install LILO/Grub in the boot sector of partition, NOT the MBR, and once again you just press the partition number to select.

• Qosmio G30-145: WinXP and RAID driver - no response

  I did everything that is needed for the installation of windows xp for Qosmio G30-145.

  Installation process is as a result: as in http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB56012H0001R01.htm and that worked, but during the installation of windows has started, you will be asked once more (first time I did format and second time that I did ' t format HARD drive): "INSERT THE DISK LABELLED"TOSHIBA RAID DRIVER"in the A: drive... "Press on enter when ready '- but no reaction... SOLUTION!

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  According to the Toshiba page suggested when installing Windows using to partition or format the HARD drive, the RAID driver is deleted in the process. This causes the shot the next time that the machine start-up.
  To avoid this, perform a partitioning and formatting before you run the manual installation of Windows.
  This behavior is not displayed during the installation of Windows XP with SP2 integrated

  Well, perhaps, you need a CD OS Win SP2 integrated?

  But why you do not use the recovery CD Toshiba delivered?
  On this CD, all drivers are preinstalled and you only need to install the OS from the recovery CD. All should work properly.

  PS: Just for the record: in the BIOS, you should find an option to disable (or change) the RAID.

• M10: Recovery WinXP and datas

  Hello!

  Is it possible to avoid erasing the data on the HARD C: drive when you use the recovery of re CD - install Win XP?
  My M10 does not start Win xp to all options, but I need data on C bad.

  [Edited by: admin December 27 05 07:05]

  Hello

  The media recovery, you can only use for the installation of the OS and this way all data will be deleted because before the OS installation starts the HARD drive will be formatted. If you need certain data from the C partition, you can connect this HDD on another unit as external one.

  But if your data is already deleted from the trash I n t see is possible to do it again.

• Brightness, function keys, WinXP and Satellite Pro A200

  Hello

  I recently bought a Satellite Pro A200 (serial PSAE7E) with WIndows Vista and try to install Windows XP next.
  After hours of hunting for drivers (with moderate success) and try to install a XP in a privileged way (3rd partition main, 2nd is for Vista), I stopped.

  I am not able to get to work a function keys (keys, light, monitor, CPU frequency and wireless) XP. Under Vista, these keys only works when Toshiba Flash Cards application is running - when I turn this app, these keys are also unavailable (why?).

  I browsed a forum and found a few threads also wrote about this topics, update BIOS to version XP
  But I do not found answers to my questions:

  (* 1) * is a software (like FlashCards, but for XP) _Activer under XP system function keys? configuration: (Vista + XP + BIOS for Vista)

  (* 2) * if I install a BIOS XP version, what happens to my Vista system installed on my laptop? It stops stating, or function keys stop responding or even a different Components would be inaccessible?
  Someone has tested the configuration like this (Vista + XP + BIOS for XP)

  (* 3) * it is possible to Flash the BIOS to the version of Vista the XP version and still the version of Vista? (maybye I should Flash the BIOS before you start the system?)

  Currently I use the BIOS version 1.70 of Vista, Vista Toshiba Recovery DVD and XP SP2.

  Hi mate,

  long discussion, short answer:

  1. no it not there no software (no software officially released and taken in charge) that is available for XP on a Sat A200.

  2. your system will operate normally, only the behavior of the function keys on bios level will change. If you Flash the bios with the XP version that the function keys should be available under XP without any software.

  3 Yes, it s definitely possible to reflash the BIOS since many clients have machines with XP and want to use Vista (I never understand but hey..)

  I hope that every question has been answered.

• How to share a printer Canon MP 970 with a WinXP Dell laptop and a Dell of Win7 desk top?

  I recently implemented a Dell PC in Win7 professional desk top which is ethernet connected to Verizon FIOS router home. This configuration has replaced a desktop Dell 7 years under Win XP computer. In an adjacent room, I have a Canon MP970 USB printer connected to an old Dell Laptop for six years under Win XP and connected wireless to the router home. I was unable to configure the latest desktop computer Win7 to share Canon printer. Older Dell/WinXP (replaced) desktop has been configured to share the printer Canon with Dell laptop, WinXP and did successfully...

  In the laptop, I selected control panel > printers and faxes > sharing > drivers additional > environment, but can find no list for Win7. My thought is that the laptop must have the appropriate driver that allows it to recognize the request of Win7 Office to share the Canon MP970 printer. Thank you fo all help and advice from the community can offer.

  Hi GrampyH,

  If you have a printer connected to your computer, you can share it with anyone on the same network. No matter what type of printer you have, as it is installed on your computer and is directly connected with a USB cable or other type of printer cable. The people from that your choice to share the printer will be able to use it to print, as long as they first locate your computer on the network.

  Printers that are directly connected to a network and not connected to a computer are available to anyone on the same network. These printers must have a network port or wireless connection that allows them to connect directly to the network.

  You can read these articles and check if that helps.

• Bootsect.dat file is corrupt, NTLDR is missing/compressed on x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition Sp3 and Ie8

  I have a x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and IE8.

  While preparing for a possible update for Win 7, I thought repartioning and "multiboot" my HARD drive.

  I tried to get WinXP operating as best I can.  I was also check out how to use the Windows Recovery Console to reinstall WinXP and transfer files to a clean reinstall.

  Found while searching "All boot paths" to Start\Run\msconfig\BOOT. INI that one boot path has been highlighted with errors indicating that "file is corrupt because playing a disc error has occurred" and that NTLDR is missing or corrupt.  In fact, it is blurred.  It points to "Recovery Console Microsoft Windows/cmdcon.  I've not used the Recovery Console, ever.

  I have a desktop Gateway 5310 S (detail) and no original XP disc, apparently.

  I have, but never used, a 4ea. set of recovery CD as of 12/05/05 I need to have created after purchase.

  I also had many, odd, problems that come and go, including worth displaying various websites, Yahoo Home Pages and E-mail that keep switch to compatibility mode or outright deletion.  The video and audio on Hulu and video-on-demand online services are always out of sync.  I have problems with editing posts on sites like this even if I can edit my profile fine pages.

  This particular set of problems started recently and very suddenly, from one day to the other.  It was after he worked actually pretty good for a change.

  I don't know how long the boot.ini file has been damaged, I actually discovered by chance.

  I can also not to reinstall some programs such as Family Tree Maker 2005 and 2008, when it was suggested to me by ancestry.com to uninstall/reinstall.

  I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash Player.  I've defragged and disc verified my discs.

  I used CCleaner to delete temp and unwanted files per day.  I ran Hitman Pro, MBAM, MBAR, MSE and SAS several times without detected virus or malware.

  And, as I mentioned above, I have problems with the editor of this site, right now.  Sometimes it just freezes and I have to leave to clear.  Other times it's duplicating entire sentences.  He also flip/flip flops between a Publisher full page and, as now, a half page window of the editor on the half left of the page.

  Suggestions from what people you can come would be greatly appreciated.  This gets really annoying.

  Thank you

  Vernon

  When you check the paths in the boot.ini file, and the recovery console is installed, you will always get an error message indicating that the startup path is not valid.

  If the recovery console is actually corrupted just to uninstall, you can reinstall or burn a cd with the recovery console.

  go here for instructions on deleting the recovery console.

  Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd

  Courtesy of JoseIbarra

  You need start by booting in XP using a CD Recovery Console, you can do (no XP media required) and run a chkdsk with error correction command enough times until it is clean and if it does not, you can create a new boot.ini file (this is usually one of two things).

  Here's how:

  Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

  Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget what you have (no XP media required).

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  RC. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.thecomputerparamedic.com/?p=8    (courtesy of Daavee)

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient. If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  ===============

  as for the other problems:

  did you use Registry cleaners?

  These can damage your system

  You seem to be free of infection, it would seem that a part of your process cleaning has removed a necessary file.

  ===============

  Checkdisk with parameter/r should be run. and run it again until there is no error.

• Dual Boot Vista and XP in separate hard drives?

  I currently installed on a hard drive in Vista and I have an extra which is 160 GB I want to install XP on so that I can dualboot both, is it possible?

• Comments to suspend and hibernate results in the cable host is disconnected.

  This is my first post in this community, so "Hello World".

  I have the following scenario:

  I suspend the guest VM (winXP) and Hibernate the host.

  Then I turn on the host and resume the VM guest.

  At this time, the guest OS informed "cable is disconnected", and there is no connection to the local network.

  The same thing happens if I use "suspend comments" and "take back the comments.

  To get connectivity once again, I shut down the guest operating system and restart the host operating system and the machine.

  Is that a known behavior?  Am I missing something obvious?

  Any ideas?

  If this is useful, create a batchfile with these 2 lines

  Hi Cor - el
  The problem seems to have disappeared with the upgrade to V17.0. It must have been a conflict between my WinXP and V16.0.2 that the problem appeared when the upgrading to V16.0.2 and disappeared with V17.0.

• DLL malloc() and free(), and common area of pile

  Hello

  In continuation with my last post, I have another problem, which may be the same, or it may be different.

  I have 2 dll, a pilot (driver.dll) and a support package (support.dll).

  If support.dll has the MyDLLAllocFunction() function and it is simply:

  void * MyDLLAllocFunction (void) {}

  Return malloc (100);

  }

  And then I do in driver.dll

  void * x;

  x = MyDLLAllocFunction();

  Free;

  I get an error for 'Free', saying that it was not malloc was or would be calloc, but however it is in another DLL. How I'd get all the modules of the library share the same bunch?

  I use WinXP and CVI 9.0.

  I observe this issue with DLLs (support.dll) that has not been compiled with CVI, but where the driver.dll was, for example when I try to use the library PCRE.dll compiled with MINGW32 (under Cygwin) and I do a free().

  Thank you

  Jason.

  I think your two dll use different options 'Run-time support' in the settings of the target, and so their memory management is done in different DLL runtime CVI. If you use the option "Run-time support" even for the allocator and deallocator, then the deallocation will work. But still, it is not very pleasant, because in the future, you can change the runtime support option, or use a different compiler, etc.. So ideally, you should use one of the methods recommended by Luis.
