Something I have yet to try is see if I can put some driver updates or driver verification tools on a PE Cd so they can be run in a Windows evironment. I also can boot off of a live cd and read or write to the hard drive if necessary. I do not think it is a hardware issue as my IDE drive with Linux (Debian to be exact) runs fine and I can use my speakers etc. Booting off of a Windows XP boot floppy with a copy of my boot.ini file retrieved from the SATA drive. Removing completely my 56k modem (model unknown) and SB Audigy 2 soundcard -ħ. Taking out and switching around my two sticks of 512 ram -Ĥ. The stop Error was 0x00000000a and then a bit of hex code after that (which I have handy if that helps)ģ.
I got a blue screen after selecting option to boot into the recovery console. Booting off of my Windows XP SP2 cd for repair or recovery prompt. Result was that safe mode stopped at system.log and never made it past that file.Ģ. The power supply, videocard, and heatsink fans all are running fine, so the issue is most likely a driver issue or a partition issue. I also can read files fine by booting off of a UBC4Win or BartPe disk. Black Screen Again! I know that my files are still on the drive, as I can boot into Debian and mount the drive and everything shows up fine and can be accessed. I resarted, booted off of the correct hard drive, got the NTLDR prompt with the correct boot.ini information and selected the option to boot WIndows XP Normally (my other option is a /safeboot). It had been over two hours and Windows normally boots in less then a minute tops. I had to leave the house, but when I came back, a black, blank screen greeted me. I did so, and rebooted to run off of my Windows SATA drive after I had installed linux to the IDE drive.
Recently, I tried to install Debian Linux onto a spare IDE hard drive that I had.
I have a Dell 8400 computer that is about 6 months old. Hello! Be prepared for a bit of thinking!
