Hi all, I backed up the bios from the other ditto identical machine and flashed the bios of the troubled machine but still the error occured during the boot. I Even physically changed the bios chip of the defected machine with other machin and again it failed to complete the boot and hanged at the windows os loading progress bar. So some one please tell me what could be the probable cayse to this....Is the motherboard need to be checked by a technicain for some fault on it? PC starts normally and shows the boot screen properly when I select to boot from any os it goes ahead and after a few seconds it got hanged at the progress bar, I just can't figure out what could be the problem with the motherboard , as initiallt it starts normally. I even tried to replace the IDE cables, Power Supply, Removing all the PCI cards etc, but nothing happened to my way... Please guide/help me ... Regards, @ Dins' ~:

Yes it is so.....

Hi Its Power Supply... SMPS stands for - Switching-Mode Power Supply Dins' ~:

{Try booting on it either a DOS floppy or (better) a live CD like a Linux distro or a BartPE, most probably it will work.} Hi jaclaz, thanks for the reply... I Tried to boot the computer with the knoippix - 3.7 live CD but it halted while searching for the usb port and got hanged... and yes I was able to boot the machine from Windows 98 bootable CD thugh. and the idea you gave me to backup the bios from another machine is really a good idea, I;ll try it and se if it works... thanks again, Bye and Take care, Regards @ Dins'

Hi All, Please reply me with your possible solution soon. I'm helpless for this, and its very urgent for me to resolve the problem ... Waiting eagerly for the positive response from the respected members .... regards, Dins' ~:

Hello thisispastrami, Try replacing the Memory chip with the another one. and also make sure that the installation CD is ok and not damaged, also try with another Setup CD to confirm. I had similar problem on one of my clients machine and I had tried so many troubleshooting but in the last it worked after replacing the SMPS... so can't say what could be the cause in your case... So I suggest you to replace one componant at a time and see whether it helps or not and if not then try changing other component..... Regards; Dins' ~:

Hi all,, It very urgent So please reply as early as possible...... One of my client's Machine Stops (Hangs) during the booting of Win Xp On the WinXP Logo Screen.

During the Copying of the Setup startup file to the Memory and just before the Massege "PRESS 'ENTER' TO INSTALL, PRESS 'R' FOR RECOVERY PRESS 'F3' TO QUIT"- THE BELOW ERROR DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN - - - { "File mountmgr.sys caused an unexpecte4d error (12800) at line 5964 ind:\int\base\boot\setup\setup.c" PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE.... and when I pressed a key, it showed.... "SETUP FAILED PRESS ANY KEY TO RESTART COMPUTER" } I removed the HDD and attached to another PC with the same configuration as the PC giving problem, and it worked all fine on that machine, I can be able to successfully Boot win xp pro and looged on with all the user account and all the installed programes worked fine as well......with no issue I worked smoothly for two-three hours. I again tried to Attach the HDD to its original PC and tried to boot but again the booting failed and the PC hanged on the WINXP Logo screen.....

Hi All, I recently came to know one program that identifies and lists drivers installed on the computer and, when connected to the Internet, allows you to search DriverGuide.com (and other sources) for driver updates and manufacturer sites. In addition, it allows you to backup your currently installed drivers for safe keeping. Backing up your Windows driver files means that they will be available to you the next time you need to reinstall the driver or the whole operating system. DriverGuide Toolkit places the driver files in one organized location of your choosing. DriverGuide Toolkit is especially helpful in situations where you have a computer in your possession and the internal hardware is unknown. DriverGuide Toolkit can identify the hardware on the system and the associated drivers, back them up to a specified location, and find the latest driver updates for them. DriverGude Toolkit is even network compatible - you can just as easily connect to a remote computer on your network, backup drivers, and find updates! So Check if it helps you........ You can download it from: http://members.driverguide.com/director/di...hp?mode=toolkit It is 5.57 MB By n' Take Care!
