Hello,
Problem is resolved. Thanks for the support.
Here is what I did:
- Created Live XP CD from BartPE
- Booted with it but during boot-up got error "The file iaStor.sys could not be found. Press any key to continue"
- Then I removed effected HDD of NX7300 and put in a USB cover and finally plugged with another running PC
- Another computer detected effected HDD as an external drive and started showing drives
- Did a virus scan of only Windows folder of effected HDD.
- Found that iaStor.sys is corrupted. [confirmed why bootup stopped in step 2 above]
- Did a search on net for iaStor.sys and found that it should not be removed/deleted
- I tried to clean iaStor.sys but failed. Then I moved it to a backup location in HDD
- Finally searched iaStor.sys (for x86-XP) from net and copied into C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers
- Plugged HDD back into NX7300.
- Booted in safe mode and it took a while during bootup but finally succeed.
- Then restarted in normal winxp mode and it started successfully.
It was a good learning in which I learned the concept of Live CD. I found it very useful in case of virus attack, not able to boot like problems.
Am now thinking to create a Live CD for XP which should give me ability to:
- Load SATA drivers
- Give GUI
- Give Network and Wireless capability
- Give virus scan facility
- Allow me to take HDD backup
- Should be able to run external USB drive, flash drive and CD/DVD enabled.
Please suggest me the way. Specifically, how I can add SATA drivers in BartPE Live CD for XP ?
Thanks.
Bye,
Viki.

Hello,
Last night when I finished my work I did a normal shutdown of my HP NX7300 notebook and left in a working state. But this morning when i started notebook it quit during bootup and restarted again. This loop continued and I tried with Safe mode (alone, with networking and with command prompt). Then I checked net and found I can stop restart to capture error message by "Disable automatic restart on system failure" option.
I tried this option several times, but still its not stopping on error message and keeps restarting.
Please advise how can I capture error message and troubleshoot restart problem.
Thanks,
Bye,
Viki.
