Solve : got the Blue Screen of Death--blues?

Answer»

I was trying to shave down contents of DRIVE using windows ME, shaved it way too close, corrupted it and now have the blank BSOD.  Before doing the final shave I partitioned the drive and so I believe still have a bootable copy of the C drive on partition named E.  I chose to make it a primary partition.  Computer will boot only to C or A and the A boots to C. 

Is there someway through DOS or other way I can get to the E partition to see if I can get a booting operating system - without making things worse?  Can't you make a FLOPPY boot disk?That way you could go to fdisk
and see what partitions show up.

This File makes a floppy boot disk for Windows ME-->Heresafe mode?? if so system restore.. or if you have your ME cd do a repair in stallThanx for tip, no safemode, no CD--computer guy who put it on there gave no CD, so no restore--I guess you have never had the BSOD--UNLESS I can get to MS Dos, I have to format and start over w/another operating system. ciao      Thanx for boot.  I surmised that was what I was going  have to do reformat c dump another op sys go get E anc copy to another drive.  If that doesn't work, maybe blow it all off and put on Linux.   ciao you cant access safe mode?? system restore is in start programs accessories system tools QUOTE from: StillSmiling on June 11, 2007, 09:17:24 PM

Just copying an OS from one partition to another will never work...if it was installed to the C: partition you MAY get lucky but i think this is an exercise in futility...
