ryen Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Hi there,it's 4 am, and i am very tired. I have spent the last night trying to get Windows working again, after it went down. I'm using Windows XP SP2 Proffessional (Eng). Here's what happened in short: i had to re-install the chipset driver for my motherboard (doesn't really matter, but it's an ASUS A8N SLI motherboard with a NForce4 chipset). The installation went fine. I rebooted. But then it went bad. Whenever i tried to boot Windows, it would give me a bluescreen, with a message about some drivers not being unloaded correctly, and reboot. I tried to boot Safe Mode, but to no avail. Same result. Tried to repair Windows with a Windows CD, but that didn't prevent the bluescreen either (it still happens just after the Windows logo shows up). Long story short, i ended up with re-sizing my Linux partition, creating a new NTFS partition in the now free space and installing a new Windows which i could boot. I can now access all my files on my original Windows partition, but i would still like it to work. It's a pain to re-install all my programs. So i was wondering, is there a way to remove the drivers in question (NForce drivers) from my original (C:) partition, while booting my new (H:) partition? And if not, is there any other way to get my C: partition to be bootable again? Oh right, btw, after repairing C: with a Windows CD i could boot Safe Mode but it just told me that setup couldn't run in safe mode and rebooted. Sigh.I would be thankful for any advice or idea,greetings,ryen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
