spotta As you know, 3rd party drivers aren't loaded in safe mode and the associated hardware is thusly turned off. So that's the place to look...
Think that's the raid BIOS talking; I've hit TAB and peeked at the RAID window but it's inactive and only accepts ESC to exit. Go ahead and try...
Newt Is the command.com window in XP not DOS? Sure looks like it and acts like it and is 16 bit. :D
Same with the Asus a8v and a8v deluxe; The bios is smart enough to make RAID an option only if the appropriate HDDs are present. Actually, each...
Watch what you say, fellows. We're both right. It's recycled in Fat32 and recycler in NTFS. It's one of the great improvements in the...

Welcome harbey Suspect that's due to some computer pest. Check out the security write-up, and follow the advice in the stickies.
Don't know what that means. Is another monitor also faint? Don't see a connection with the booting failure. Might look at the BIOS to see...
paulbristow Still think you should repartition, delete and remake it, before formating. That removes any and all leftovers in the system areas...
How can that be, after the disk was formatted. Think there must be residual evidence of Home in the system areas that format doesn't touch, but...
