Your ISP should have space allotted to you for just this kind of thing. Although it may be called space for a web page, you can do anything with...
Look for diagnostic progs on the mfgr's web page. Running diagnostics should tell you if the disk is toast or not.
Agree with skeet6961 and would emphasize, if you have ever installed anything inside the case or opened the case for any reason, check the ribbon...
chkdsk /f makes the disk readable to the OS and would do that first. It doesn't recover anything that's lost. chkdsk /r will find and mark bad...
oowee, Did you repartition the drive before formatting it? That's important to delete anything bad on the system areas. If you did, then it is...
Although you posed a technical question, this is a not so technical answer. Searched a lot today and finally found something pertinent using...
A free CD is available at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/, or if you have dsl or cable you might download an .iso file to burn to a CD, but that'll...
Sounds like the i386 folder is insufficient; maybe needs the whole CD on the hard drive? Or the message is irrelevant, as many are. Reread, and...
Was thinking copy the windows i386 folder to the HDD after partitioning into 2-3 partitions (disks) and then replace it in the laptop and install...
Suggest you just hook up the drive to your desktop, temporarily disconnect the cables from your other drives, and put in the windows CD. It...
Me too. Have done an image of a disk but really don't like the idea so don't use it.
The last part of the thread Welshjim pointed you to tells how to post a hijackthis log in the spyware forum. If you haven't, that whould be your...
Learned something today. Dug out a boot DVD made a year ago that never booted on the Abit NF7-S MoBo and NEC DVD with Roxio, but is still useable...
Sounds like it's infected; maybe has been for some time. Reinstalling will not clear some of these unless you first remove the partition and,...
Christer, Try using a ghost boot floppy made by the ghost program with DR-DOS rather than MS-DOS. I then copy the entire ghost folder to the CD...
Looks fine. Would go ahead. HDDs never have the advertised size; it's rounded up. :D However, I don't like the single partition; would separate...
Hi Christer, Just quoting Tony, but I do the same thing. Use the win98 or a customized boot floppy as the boot process on the CD-ROM, and then...
Thanks for your patience with me, TonyT. From the thread so far, I finally gather you're dealing with a disk that has only NTFS on it. Suggest...
If the ghost CD doesn't see the files on the dvd you can copy them, in windows if necessary, to the second partition where ghost will see them. I...
Suggest you just make a bootable CD with ghost.exe on it and then when you run ghost from the CD you can insert the DVD and ghost will find the...
