Hi,

I have installed in my new computer Windows XP Pro with 50 GB partition. I want to create an extra partition using disk management tools. I cannot complete the formatting for unknown reasons. 

After the process, I cannot launch windows anymore. I have ASUS P5Q SE PLUS LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard and HDD Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3250310AS 250GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive – OEM. 

I am forgetting to do something or install something? 

Any inputs will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi folks,

Windows XP is not starting in my Dell Laptop. I get the message that Windows is unable to load because <Windows root>System32hal.dll is missing or corrupt. I don’t know what .dll file is and where to get this. I tried running in the Safe Mode but I can’t. My primary concern is to save my files from the computer’s memory. Can I still recover my files? What can I do in this situation?

A friend of mine told me to re-install windows, but I am worried that if I do such, I cannot recover my files anymore. Please help.

Thank you.

Hi all,

My computer is now unresponsive.  A message appears and it says SATA DRIVE NOT RECOGNIZED.  It is requiring a reboot, but after rebooting the system, same problem appears.  The SATA drive is unrecognized.  The screen turned black, although I can still see the toolbars. All programs installed and personal files are missing.  I tried to run on SAFE MODE and tried to restore the computer on a previous date, but it is not working.  I checked BIOS and SATA is enabled.  What can I do to make the drive recognizable or how can I make my computer run normal mode again?  

Thanks.

Hello,

So here, let me share my external hard drive on my home network.
I have several computers (Windows 7) connected to the Internet through a network switch and a number of CPL.

But my external hard drive has no Ethernet port (only USB) and I have no idea how I can do to connect to my home network and to be recognized by other computers.

I want to know how to do this.

Thank you for your answers.

Hello,

I have faced a small problem recently, when I want to sync with a USB device and Windows media player 12. Basically before I could sync my mp3 with my USB, my mobile phone (via micro SD). But here, the reader does not detect any device ("device not found" or "mobile device not detected").

Any ideas?

Thanks folks.

Hi all,

I reinstalled Windows XP on an external hard drive, which would be permanently connected to it with USB.

To do this, I created a bootable USB drive (from a CD) ,but when installing windows (blue screen with the loading of drivers below), once at "installing windows "I am entitled to a beautiful blue screen!

First of all,is my manipulation  feasible?
If so, where does the problem?
If not, do you have other solutions?

Thanks.

Hello people,

I tried converting file systems. I ended up completely messed up.

For Windows 98SE and earlier, FAT32 or FAT16 is the type of file to the hard disk. NTFS is the standard for windows XP.

They say that NTFS is faster than FAT32, which is far superior. Especially when defragmenting, FAT32 is more slowly. I've tried to convert as well.

Now I don't even know what happened, I've gone wrong.

Please help.

Thank you.

Hi,

Since about a week, my network card (Realtek RTL8139/810x family fast Ethernet nic)no longer works.

I updated the driver, but it has not changed.

I reinstalled my system.

I installed Win XP and also the cd of the NIC to reset the computer version of the first use, but nothing has changed over.

The card was not recognized.

I await your solutions friends.

Thanks.

Hi dude,

My motherboard & CPU went south on me, so I decided I would pull my 2 hard drives out of my PC and install them in external hard drive cases (which worked very well). I then set up a new Windows XP pc (my old one was 2000 running outlook 2003).

The new pc recognized my external drives and I proceeded to try and find all of my email (PST) files on my old hard drive. I cannot find any of my current email anywhere, Except for some archive files there are no PST files. Does anybody have a solution to where I should be looking?

Thanks.
