As far as the former, if you could post the exact stop message, that would be awesome. The hard drive may be on its' last leg. You could try a low-level format on the drive, then a re-install...minus that recently added stick of memory. LMK...
But tried something new just to see what would happen I put another harddrive in like I said just to see what would happen and well I get the same thing???
not sure what was on that harddrive but it gave me the same error so I put the old one back in and will wait for more replys but thanks
Thats when I will have time to try without getting interrupted
thank you zero.counter for your time
DogDragon

NOPE didn't do it so I'm lost again
Have you tried TestDisk to see what it says?
I have no clue I'm running the Mator teat again and see what it says
It might also pay to zero-out the drive, which will make sure that any partition oddities are gone for good. If you do that, don't run any fdisk utility. It would be better to start with a totally blank drive, then let Windows Setup create a partition of the size you want.
and you saying to
these are my choices to what I think you are asking. I won't do anything till I understand what you are saying
low level format (full)
or
low level format( quick)
But what I think you are saying is do a low level format ( Full)
Than put the windows xp disk in and let it do the rest
right
Let you know what happens when I do it
Again Thank-You
I'm glad this forum is here
This drive is about to be low level formatted. All data on this drive will be ERASED. Back up ALL data BEFORE running this test.
Maxtor recommends removing any other hard drive from the system before running this test.
Continue ?
Yes
No
I did the yes thing
Are You Sure?
Yes
No
I did the yes thing
well it started.
Hoping for the best
and Hello all and thank for all the help again
Nope
got this again

so you saying just put it in and if window want to start stop it and than it's the harddrive?
I got the sane error message.
Ok so what else could it be or what else can I do.
Thank you
bummer, now it's awhole new set of tests to do
I don't get it it was working find two weeks ago
than it just went into that error.
I was going to put it in this pc as a second (slave) harddrive
the one with XP on is the one I didn't want to lose the info from
(One caution: if there's something else wrong with the system which is affecting the HD then it is possible that you'd mess up the partition.)
Thanks for all the help so far
profdlp I checked out the folding@home
have to asked you some questions about it
But we can cover that later when I'm online again
And again Thank you for all the help so far
Here's another thing which may be of help:
Years ago I had an Asus A7V board which was the smoothest thing I'd ever had (back in the Win98/Win2K days). When the A7V133 (newer chipset, but otherwise identical) board came out I bought one. After three days of the same type of junk you're going through now I said the hoots with it and went out and bought an Abit MB. A few months later I upgraded the CPU.
After a few weeks went by I was sitting around looking at the Asus and the old CPU and decided to give the A7V133 another try. On a whim, I dropped everything in the BIOS that was performance-related down to slow-as-heck settings. Since it was going to be a spare rig anyway, I didn't care too much about performance.
Wouldn't you know it - I sailed right through the installation with no trouble at all. Then I decided to see if I could figure out which one of the BIOS settings was the culprit. One by one I raised things up to high performance levels and guess what - it remained stable all the way to max settings on everything.
It might be worth your while to methodically go through your BIOS and do things like disabling Bus Mastering, drop your RAM timing to "Normal" (as opposed to "Fast" or "Turbo"), and basically find anything you can which can be lowered to "granny" speed. At this point, it's worth a shot.
She said that's what I has that other one for (the one I'm working on)
so I'm willing to try if you can give me a web page to go and see how to do it or
tell me and I will be happy to try.
The most I done before this was assemble one meaning putting the motherboard in hooking the power supply,cd rom,floppy,modem,etc
and was happy to see it worked.
But my son took that one when he moved out and he's still use it today
So I know alittle but what you're saying to do now I don't know how or where to start to do that.
But I'm not afraid to try
Thanks for all the help so far
