Matt U. wrote: I get a blue screen saying "INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE" and a bunch of other text
This typically means that either the new platform or the old (or both) requires a non-standard disk driver. When Windows boots, the initial boot loader has to be able to read the disk in protected mode (where it can't drop back to an add-in ROM) at a point where it only has the capability of reading the root directory, and when it hasn't yet loaded the registry. To do this, either the disk must be connected to a legacy hard disk controller or register compatible (such as on-board non-RAID IDE or SATA) or there must be a copy of the disk (controller) driver copied to ntbootdd.sys in the root of the boot partition.
Alternatively it may be as simple as the line in boot.ini referring to the old location of the drive, for example if it was the primary master in the old system but is now primary slave.
You can typically do a repair install of the OS to fix this. Boot from the install CD, hit F6 to select an additional drivers required, insert the driver floppy when prompted, then select to install or upgrade (not the first Repair option), then select the location of your old Windows installation and choose to reinstall over the top. This will cause setup to write a new ntbootdd.sys driver, if needed, or fix up the line in boot.ini if that's the problem. It'll also re-do all of the hardware detection so you shouldn't have any more problems with incorrect drivers.

If I'm not mistaken, you can only boot a Windows partition from a master drive. Or at least, the boot sector must reside on the master drive; given that, booting multiple operating systems from multiple disks will be difficult, but dual booting from one master disk is easy.
Anyway, I think to answer your question, you need to change the jumper on the drive to "Master" to get the drive to boot properly, but just know that only that partition will boot, you will not be able to select the other operating system (whichever it may be).
If you want to dual boot both XP Pro and W2k, repartition your master drive the way you want (minimum of 2 partitions). Now install W2k FIRST onto the FIRST partition on the disk. Now install XP Pro onto the SECOND partition on the disk.
You can use the remaining portion of the first disk and all of the second disk for additional storage.
XP Pro will rewrite the boot sector of the disk and will recognize the W2k partition as bootable and will add it to the boot menu. The only thing you need to know now is that ALL post-BIOS and pre-Windows boot management is handled by the XP Pro installation.

Hi All,
Is there a posibility to execute two instances of the explorer.exe in windows xp-sp2 ???
If U Get Errors U Will Learn
If U Don't Get Errors U Have Learnt
|
|
|
|
|
No. When you run explorer.exe while one instance is already running, the newly created instance would signal the already running instance of the executable to create an explorer window and then the new instance would quit on its own.
|
|
|
|
|
You can only run one instance of it.

Hi,
I have windows xp-sp2.I have a on-board Ethernet card.my system is not connected to the network.
I shared a folder in My machine and tried to access the folder by typing the systemname in run like \\node1\share ,so that i get the share open. but it displayed a message the machine in offline or the network down.
what can i do to access the share without network. just like local host 127.0.0.1
Thanks in advance.

I'm sure I don't understand your question. I have one of my own though: Why do you need a share on your compter if you are not on a network?

If you create the new domain controller in the same domain as the old one, as an additional domain controller, you automatically get a replicated copy of the user accounts. I would strongly recommend doing it this way. Otherwise you will have to rejoin all of your workstations to the new domain as well, and all users' local profiles will then become disconnected from their accounts too.
In the main, Active Directory is a multi-master system - the DCs are peers and updates can be made on any DC. If you later plan to decommission the old DC there are a few roles, which only run on a single DC (for example, schema master and NT4 PDC-compatibility), which you will have to transfer. This can be done (IIRC) in Active Directory Domains and Trusts. You should also make your new DC a Global Catalog server.
The regular Windows Explorer copy process does not copy the security on files, if I recall correctly. When transferring to our new DC recently, we initially used xcopy and when we had some trouble with that, causing the 70GB copy to stop, used Robocopy from the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools[^], which supports detecting unchanged files and restarting copy operations. Those tools support copying the existing Access Control Lists (ACLs). For xcopy use the /O switch, while for Robocopy use /SEC.

Hi...
My advice is to back up your important data before trying anything. I've lost all data several times trying stuff like this... Can you connect the drive to a properly functioning PC and copy everything there?
What did you use to change the drive letter to J? Did you delete the C partition?
(I'm not really an expert on this, so maybe better to wait for more replies...)

Windows locks the two partitions that is uses to start up, though these can be the same partition. The first is the Boot partition. In your case, the C: drive. This is used to start the boot process and start loading the system files. The second in the System partition, your J: drive, where the Windows system files are stored.
You really don't have any good choices but to reinstall Windows, and during the installation, delete the partition you want to format. You can recreate a new partition and format it after Windows has been installed. Be warned, all your drive letters will change.

Thanks!!! I was Thinking the Same u told : But i wasn't sure...
Anyway...
Hey u told something to change drive letters : Is that to be done manually or it will be done automatically at the time of Merging Two Partitions??? So tht mean i will lose drive letters C and J???? 
And I also wannt to Merge partitions J: into C: ......
Is it possible?

The drive letters will get new assignments automatically when you reinstall Windows.

Only if they are contiguous on disk, or can be made contiguous. There is software out there that will do it, like Partition Magic, by moving the existing partitions around.

I have no idea what you've managed to do, but if Windows is corrupted, reinstalling Windows is your best bet - and that doesn't need an Admin account.

That depends on what happened to get rid of it.

Hi, some suggestions:
1. backup your data
2. you could boot from another disk (a floppy, a CD, a bootable USB device) which
allows you full operations on all partitions
3. there are commercial products that are good at dealing with partitions (adding,
resizing, renaming), one of them is Partition Magic.

Hello,
how can I create a littel process that listen to the
windows security when we enter the username and password?
I created a process that listen to all keyboard clicking
but it doesnt catch the security windows window (you know, when the
computer lock or something)
thanx.
|
|
|
|
|
First of all, don't cross post. Secondly, there is absolutely no justifiable reason to write software that captures security information like this.
|
|

|

O.K
really I'm not trying to get anyone password.
my reason is that I'm an administrator at my company
and we have a few computers with password for the employee
that we send to our customers but they have a kind of a window lock
when they enter a incorrect password and the windows lock it self
after 3 attempts .our employee swear us that they enter the password correct and we cant find the reason for all the locks.
it cost us a lot of money all those day the cant work beacuse the computer
lock it self. we want to find out if they entered the correct password
before the computer lock.
hope its a good reason.
thanx
