Scarecrow Man Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 You cannot boot your computer?If this is the problem, insert your XP CD, boot from it, and go to recovery console (type r when it's done loading)Log on to the installation you have as your main partition, type your admin password, and then you should be at a C: prompt.type 'fixboot' and 'fixmbr' If this isn't the problem your having, please give more details as to what happened, and what you would like to do.

christmascracker Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 Have you tried taking out the new ram to see if it boots ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trackrat Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 Have you been into the bios to set the cdrom as first boot device.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shield Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Like christmascracker said, take out that ram, might be a bad stick, or computer doesnt like it for some reason. Do you have another computer to swap harddrives so you can save your files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
