April 20, 200620 yr I have a Dell dimension XPS Gen 4 w/ Intel pentium 4 processor 3.46GHz, 1066FSB W/ HT TECHNOLOGY, EXTREME EDITION Running MSW MCE 2005...on ATA RAID 0, Dual 160GB Hard Drives...Here is my situation, When I turn on my computer, after the Dell logo appears, I then receive a black screen w/ a blinking cursor in the upper left hand corner, If I power it on & off a number of times, It will then boot up...Is there anyway to fix this situation ???
April 20, 200620 yr i don't think its a Media center issue, why don't u try to get into recovery console (if u have) and run chkdsk /r. Or next time when u boot up get into msconfig and enable only the bootable files, and disable the rest !!
April 21, 200620 yr Author RANJIT JACOB, THANKS FOR THE INFO, DID BOTH OF THOSE W/ NO LUCK & DELL HAS KNOW IDEA EITHER, FIGURE THATOUT, WELL I WILL HAVE TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON THIS ONE, WHEN I HAVE A CLEAR MIND & SOME EXTRA TIME, THANKS AGAIN !!!
April 22, 200620 yr Don't call DELL immediately, they will ask u do a system recovery on ur PC. u can try a BIOS Defaults, system restore if u are able to boot to desktop..all the best !!
