Solve : Dual boot Windows 98 and 2000? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Is there any way to have a computer set to automatically boot to Windows <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2000-247615" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2000">2000</a>, but <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/get-11812" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GET">GET</a> to 98 if needed? As in, instead of having the boot screen and choosing 2000 or 98, have it go straight to 2000 unless you hit some magic key(s) during start up that will bring up the dual boot screen?This might not be exactly what you're looking for but it the only way I can think of without having to mess with other bootloaders than the default windows one. You could set the time it was at the boot screen to be very low, like 1-2 seconds. Then the default OS would be loaded unless someone pressed a key within this time period.<br/><br/>Now I can't <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/remember-621937" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about REMEMBER">REMEMBER</a> how to accomplish this in 98 and I've never used 2000 much, but I'm guessing 2000 and XP must be a similar setup so I'll post the directions for doing it in XP.<br/>Right click 'My Computer' and select 'Properties'<br/>Select the 'Advanced' tab and press the 'Settings' button under Startup and Recovery.<br/><br/>Where it says 'Time to display list of operating systems:' set a very low number like 1-2 seconds. Also make sure the default OS is set to 2000.You might need to experiment a bit to get the timing the way you want it. On my dual-boot Win 98SE/XP system, if I were to set the time at 1-2 seconds, I believe I would not even see that screen. The reason I say that is that with it set at 5 seconds, my current setting, the screen does not appear until 3 seconds are left. In other words, the first two seconds have elapsed before that screen is actually displayed. You wouldn't necessarily be able to see it, if you wanted 98 you could just tap the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/arrow-884708" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ARROW">ARROW</a> keys repeatedly until the selection screen appeared. But this of course comes down to personal taste. I guess that would work, as long as you get your timing right and don't let the moment pass at which you need to make the selection. Tapping an arrow key at that screen appears to stop the timer, which is the point you're making, right?<br/><br/>I just experimented and set the time down to only 1 second. I still saw the screen to select the OS.<br/>Yeah that was my point... Actually I think any key will stop the timer but I just use the arrow keys.</p></body></html> | |

So this person ( who shall remain nameless!) told me to remove the new account, which I did. Now of course I can't get in at all!!<br/><br/>What can I do?<br/><br/>Thanks,<br/><br/>SusieDid you enter a password or just leave it blank? If you entered one, the problem is you don't remember what it was?maybe I didn't explain properly! I don't even know what user name to enter as I've never had to enter one when I start up the pc since I've had it. It has only been since setting up the new account and then deleting it tonight that I'v been asked for a user name and password.<br/><br/>I hope that makes sense...Have you tried typing in a username & password? Yes, I've tried a few...like administrator and admin. The computer was second hand from a company called Hire Intelligence in London. I'll contact them on Monday to see if they have any <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/ideas-1035826" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about IDEAS">IDEAS</a> or passwords.<br/><br/>If they don't, then does anyone know what I should try next?I'm back in!! Got lucky with a password with some help from someone who works at the company who sold it to me.<br/><br/>Thanks anyway everyone!<br/><br/>SusieFor future refrence, if you are ever locked out of your computer, there are ways to get around it.<br/><br/>1) Boot with a NT bootdisk<br/>2) type net user<br/>3) Determine <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/administrative-850216" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ADMINISTRATIVE">ADMINISTRATIVE</a> Account<br/>4) type net user [admin account] * <br/>5) type a new password<br/>6) confirm your password<br/>7) Success!

Solve : Word 2000 problem PLEASE help? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I'm running Windows XP and the Firefox browser. My question is <br/><br/>Hi, I know so little about computers that I may even be posting this in the wrong section - apologies if I am...<br/><br/>I have been busy working on an assignment for a while, and have been saving my word document on a memory pen with the file name "final assignment". I just opened the document and did about 2 hours work on it, making some big changes - I just went to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hit-1028201" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HIT">HIT</a> a final save before I finished for the evening, and suddenly my document sort of froze, and I noticed that the name of the document had renamed to something bizzare - a temporary file name (WR and numbers or something similar?!), and then I clicked on this box and my document vanished.....<br/><br/>.... and now it is knowhere to be found - not on my pen, not anywhere - not even the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/original-1139424" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ORIGINAL">ORIGINAL</a> SAVED document that I had been working on for a few weeks. <br/><br/>Is there anyone out there for whom this rings any bells, and who might know if I have a single hope of recovering this document - at least to the point of the last successful save - or to the point it was at 2 hours ago when I started working on it?? Is there a chance that my computer could've just erased it?<br/><br/>Here's hoping this makes sense to SOMEONE....<br/><br/>Thanks in advance<br/><br/> go to file and on the bottom of the menu is your most recent docs is it not thereHi, I'm not sure where you mean by "file", but I've looked in "my recent documents" and it's not there, and it's not on a file search <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/either-967193" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EITHER">EITHER</a>.... it's vanished from the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/folder-246959" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FOLDER">FOLDER</a> it was saved in?? It just doesn't make sense!What program is this important document created in ? ?Um - it's a word document - I'm guessing that's not the answer you're looking for, but I'm not sure what you mean! Sorry, and I appreciate the help!Does anyone think I'll be able to find my document anywhere, or should I just give up and start again? <br/><br/>Thanks...<a href="http://www.amset.info/tips/office-recovery.asp">Try Here...</a>Thanks for taking the trouble to find me a link - however my temporary file has vanished - there is no trace of the document I once had, so I think I have to acept a loss on this one! I just can't believe it removed a document I had saved weeks ago!<br/><br/>Thanks anway for the help...sounds like your pen drive crapped out. It happens. have you tried removing it and reinserting it, or putting it in another computer?<br/><br/><br/>Go to Start / Search and use the star dot method...this will bring up every file on the machine with the same extension...<br/><br/>In your case it would be *.doc and hit Enter.<br/><br/>This will show every Word document on your machine and you may get lucky...that is if you remember the title of the page you are looking for.Quote from: panic_striken on June 05, 2007, 01:56:43 PM</p><blockquote>Hi, I'm not sure where you mean by "file", but I've looked in "my recent documents" and it's not there, and it's not on a file search either.... it's vanished from the folder it was saved in?? It just doesn't make sense!<br/></blockquote>And, this "folder" is on the flash drive, right? Did you have other files on the flash drive? Can you access them? <br/><br/>Such a dilemma should be an incentive to improve your procedures in the future. For one thing, never work on a word processing file for a long time, e.g. for two hours as you did, without doing a save. Getting in the habit as saving often, say, every 5 to 15 <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/minutes-770612" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MINUTES">MINUTES</a>, will help prevent such losses. <br/><br/>Also, unless this file is a sensitive document (based on content), I would not work off the flash drive as a normal practice. In other words, save that file to the hard drive and work off the hard drive. Then, when you've finished a session, copy the updated file the flash drive. However, if you prefer to work off the flash drive because you're working on someone else's computer and you want to leave no trace of the file on their hard drive, implement a procedure of periodically backing up the files on the flash drive to YOUR hard drive, or burn to CD, etc.</body></html> | |

I haven't <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/even-976335" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EVEN">EVEN</a> gotten to Desktop yet...I can't even get into the computer until I get past this Log On point.

It is however, connected to a DSL modem/router. <br/><br/>Any ideas how to by pass this?<br/><br/>Thanks<br/><br/>KeithWhen the login comes up, click the "more" or "advanced" button (not sure which).

I would have certainly explored it. The only option I have, is to log in with a username and password OR check the DIAL UP box and that is a dead end road all in itself.OK, you wrote over the old OS, so you don't have any fies on there you want to keep, right?<br/><br/>Try popping the Win 2000 disc in and instead of just doing the quick install, do a complete reformat.

Let's see where the problem is first. i'm on another cpu right now so how do i get memtest onto the other cpu(at diff location) and how does it work??It's a small dowload that will let you create a bootable floppy or CD. You just boot with the disk in there and it will start the test. Let it run for at least 30 minutes.<br/><br/>The ideal way to test is one stick of RAM at a time then all together.thx... do i also do this with the hard drive diagnostics too???Yes.i tried the memtest and the hard drive checks but both came back fine. i managed to re-install windows <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2k-300402" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2K">2K</a> pro and it <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/workedralvaja-3284364" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WORKED">WORKED</a> fine for 1 day now when i boot up i get a message saying <br/>STOP 0x0000007b 0x840d6030,0xc0000032,0x00000000,0x00000000)<br/>inaccessible boot device.<br/>i'm now gonna try to install windows xp pro although this is a counterfeit copy.<br/>any ideas ppl thx in advanceGood luck.

Solve : Windows 2000 Freezes at Boot [Solved]? |

The computer now freezes when I try to start it.

Can I fix Windows by replacing a certain file?<br/><br/>Edit: I booted FreeDos, replaced C:\WINNT\System32\config\system with system.alt, and it booted fine. Test your hard drive.I ran chkdsk from the Recovery Console, and it said it fixed "one or more errors." But the laptop still won't start right. :-/Free hard drive diagnostics are available from the appropriate drive maker's site. If unsure, use SeaTools from <a href="http://www.seagate.com">www.seagate.com</a><strong>Different Problem Now</strong><br/><br/>I found that the corrupted file is C:\WINNT\System32\config\system.

Solve : Can Windows 2000 be Installed? |

I was wondering, if or can, windows 2000 be run as a clean boot over the windows ME? <br/><br/>One other thought is if I remove windows ME, would I be able to then install the Windows 2000 program?<br/><br/>I know one is DOS base and the other NT. Just wondering how can I get windows 2000 on this pc. Any replies welcome.Boot with your legal Win2000 CD, press any key when asked and follow the prompts. Choose to format the drive during this process. Be sure and back up any needed data first as the drive will be erased.Thanks for the reply GX1_man. I thought it could but was not sure of compatibility since it windows is based on a different format. I think I will try it. <br/><br/>I have a new windows 2000.

Solve : Problem Starting Windows 2000? |

After a while, I restarted, and windows wouldn't start. I had a error message that I am missing the file WINNT/<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/system32-344202" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SYSTEM32">SYSTEM32</a>/Drivers/isapnp.sys, and that I need to repair using the Windows 2000 CD. <br/><br/>He told me he didn't touch the system32 folder, in fact, he didnt even go into the WINNT folder. He only cleaned up some TEMP files. Now our computer won't load windows, and won't let me repair or format my C drive. THe same scratching noise starts to appear whenever it loads my windows 2000 and the windows 2000 CD. Can anyone help me with this problem?It's <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/never-570518" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NEVER">NEVER</a> a good sign when your HD starts to make noise. It usually means your HD is on its way to RIP. Hope you have all your data backed up. <br/><br/>B.I wouldn't try starting the computer and go ahead and get yourself another hard drive. Then place the new hard drive into your computer, load up WinXP or your other favorite operating system. When you hook up the new computer, make sure you set it up for Primary Master and the other harddrive for anything else (Primary Slave, Secondary master & secondary Slave). Then you could go ahead and grab all the files you need to regardless of if you backed it up or not. <br/><br/>Let me know if this helps you out. But yes, as bayern said.. the hard drive coincidentally is going bad and you know it due to that scratching.dang thats what I'm most afraid of. But my computer had no problems till last night when this all happened. the scratching noises came from nowhereThat's how things in this world are made they all have a life span. Everything crashes at one point. It was just your harddrives time to go.Before you do this though, make absolute sure that it really was your hard drive ;-) It would be really sad if you <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/got-23540" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GOT">GOT</a> rid of a perfectly good hard drive just to find that a wire was hitting the fan or something.<br/><br/>If it wasn't for that scratching I would say your brother unintentionally did something, but if the scratching came with it then yep, that's the sad way of life. Maybe as it was working on deleting, a part of it didn't function correctly.<br/>The 2 incidents could very well be related or could be a coincidence...DLoad and run the diagnostics from the HDD manuf. site.<br/><br/>If it is the HDD making noise then the more you use it the closer you get to losing all your data.<br/><br/>patio. 8-)the problem was indeed becuase of my HD. I got a new one and now it works fine. thank you all Glad you're all fixed up...stop by anytime !<br/><br/>patio. 8-)</p></body></html> | |

It will be a muted whine of sorts. <br/><br/>Alan <>< Yes thank you, I have contacted the seller I believe he is going to allow me to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/ship-344194" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SHIP">SHIP</a> it to him to be fixed, and there dose not seem to be any strange noises coming from the note book.<br/>A very greatful Miss7MarieThe note book dose make a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/noise-13653" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NOISE">NOISE</a> the same as this notbook doese when i turn it on.<br/>The seller has not gave me the return address yet, I am getting nervice I might be stuck with this not working note book. I understand that I might have viruse, from ther I do not know what to do, I do not have a windows cd to run, and I cannot even use the notebook in safe mode, and know nothing about hard drive replacement . Do you think there is something I can buy to fix this, that comes with detailed instructions for some one like me? <br/><br/>Miss MarieI saw an add on this site for<br/>PC for Beginner CD <br/>Utilities Suite 2006<br/>Could this help me?<br/>Or is it a to good to be true?<br/>And even if it is to late for it to work on my sons note book, is it something I should have on hand for my daughters notebook witch is also a windows 2000<br/>can this replace the windows cd that i do not own?<br/>I know I am asking a lot, sorry for that. <br/>Thank You<br/>Miss MarieI would go to Best Buy and get a real copy of WIndows XP Home for $55 this <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/week-1451206" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WEEK">WEEK</a> (ends Sunday). Then I would find a geeky friend who could replace that hard drive and get that installed.<br/><br/>I don't think those other products will help at all. I think you have a hardware problem that needs to be fixed first.<br/><br/>There are computer shops that can do this if you don't know anyone up to the task.<br/><br/>Sometimes bargains are not bargains. A new low end laptop can be had for $500. A new one from Dell not much more. You get a warranty and some support.<br/><br/>The Windows 2000 CD can be used for the install of XP or possibly it can be installed on that machine, depending on what it says on it.Thank you all so much, the note book is on it's way back to the seller, and I am headed out to get the proper back up stuff I need to take care of all of our notebooks mine says that it is already in my notebook, but I have backed it up on dvds.<br/>Again thank you.<br/>Miss7Marie</p></body></html> | |

The solution is that you need to set the computer to boot from the CDROM first. This is done in the BIOS boot order. Just make sure that the CD is <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/higher-245677" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HIGHER">HIGHER</a> in priority than the hard drive.<strong>To Boot To The Floppy Drive</strong><br/>On most Motherboards, you click DEL to get into the BIOS settings.
