geezery Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 (edited) Can you put your system specs here also.Is the hard disk SATA or normal IDE?http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread41835.htmlhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/fastFaq...cname=c00035720I think you should go to Recovery Console. Press R on the first menu that appears, when you insert your Windows XP cd inside.-Choose the first Windows installation. My guess "1"-Then you must know your Administrator pasword. Might be blank.-Type these to the consolechkdsk /rfixbootfixmbrThen restart the machine and try to install again. If you have a SATA hard drive you might have to install SATA drivers also. Press "F6" on the beginning of the installation. You might have a diskette that came with your motherboard / machine.Or you can just slipstream the Sata drivers to your installation media. But that's a different stroy. Edited May 29, 2007 by geezery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjecina Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hard disk is IDE.Processor is E4300Memory: 512 MB + 512 MBIt is not possible to me to start Recovery Console so chkdsk /r is out of question.Windows XP installation is from Windows 98 (which has installed OK).

John9871 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I have been experiencing problems with my internet connection for the past one month. I must have caught a virus, because every time I went online the whole network in the office wouldn't work. That used to upset my brother, so for a month I haven't touched my computer. Yesterday my bro left for a few days and I thought to fix the problem on my PC. I tried to reformat booting Windows XP from CD, but it didn't work. So I went to the Bios and made sure *Boot from CD* was the first choice. Still it didn't work. I tried to reformat from floppy in Dos. Again I went to my Bios and changed the first option *Boot from Floppy*. Guess what? It didn't work. So I thought to over-write Windows XP on top of the existing OS. That worked. But the old problem persisted. Every time my PC was on, the network collapsed: no computer could access the internet. I am pretty stubborn and don't give up easily. I thought that maybe now I could try and reformat. I went back to the Bios, made some changes, saved, rebooted, and now all I get is an error message. *** STOP: 0x000000ED (0x8179BAF8, 0xc0000032, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)I tried to boot in safe mode and I failed. I tried to boot with the last known working settings and I failed. All I get is this error message. I looked around the internet for answers, I couldn't find any solution.How to disable the Bios memory options? To be honest with you I have no clue on where disabling the memory options will bring me, but it's one of the things that comes up with the error message: *Disable Bios memory options such as caching or shadowing*Where I start from?Any help is truly appreciated.

John9871 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) Thanks tripredacus for your help but the problem still stays after trying everything suggested in that link so, search about it a lot and at last found a perfect trick who fixed my PC. So, the article says my boot volume got corrupted and it does what I've found at the end Here's the command what i use in cmd. Opened cmd by my windows usb stick, great thing which I've also learned new by the way Command 1# – Diskpart Command 2# – List volume Command 3# – Exit Command 4# – D: (You’re Windows Drive Letter) Command 5# – Bootrec /fixmbr Command 6# – Bootrec /fixboot Command 7# – Chkdsk /f (Try chkdsk /f /r If “Chkdsk /f” command Wont Works) Command 8# – Y After “chkdsk” command completes, just restart my computer and I my problem is solved. Thanks for your help again Edited January 28, 2016 by Tripredacus removed url Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
