I think I've got an lsass.exec and/or services.exe virus. Machine just keeps rebooting in both normal and safe mode before the log on screen xpsp2.
TrendMicro was installed and up to date....
Is there a downloadable boot virus scan that can get me into the system to do a cleanup etc.??
Did you set the jumpers correctly for the position of the drive.
Sometimes, you may have to reboot xp, even after it has found the drive on initial boot.
Removing hadrives from laptops seems sort of cumbersome if you have to do it on a regular basis.
Depending on the brand of laptop you may be able to make use of a 2nd hard drive adapter bay. Thinkpads have these and you can hot swap them just like a floppy. A few other models have them too...
As I mentiond previously, your key should work with another oem xp home i386 folder.
1 You can try using his complete disk with his key to get it installed. Once installed, you will have to change the PID. You can search for that on the Microsoft Knowledge base. They allow it and you will...
As mentioned before, if you can get a copy of a full i386 oem home folder, you can use your oem home key. It's legal and you will have to activate.
You could also clean out the original hp progs from the registry with a prog like regcleaner and end up pretty clean.
Your key will only work with an oem cd, and not necessarily any oem cd. It must have the full i386 home oem folder. Some xp disks shipped with systems have tailored files and will not work with another brand oem key.
You can also connect your vhs player to the analog in of a minidv camcorder and it will hardware decode and you can transfer that to your pc in avi format (which is normal minidv) via firewire.
I have used AIW cards for at least the last 6 years and still have an original RadeonAIW with 32mb...
Last week I ordered the identical 80gig travelstar from zipzoomfly for $112.00 including shipping and got it in four days.
A lot better price than $522.00 from IBM and not bad compared to the $53.00 price of the IBM mistake.
I'm happy and no matter what I still swear by their Thinkpads.
I assme you used air from an air compressor in the garage. They are notorious for blowing condensation with the air. Could you have gotten anything wet enough?
I bought a couple of the 5k100 (5400) 80gig drives a few month's ago and have noticed a dramatic improvement over the 4200. At the time, I read several tests that reported that other than at boot, the 7200rpm drive showed little if any speed difference in real time use over the 5400.
Fortuneatly, I never used those drives, but to show how times have changed, the Travelstar has been and still is considered probably the best laptop drive. Seagate of late has had a big push to dislodge them.
LOL
I am willing to bet that 99% of the people that tried to get in on this hot deal never have and never will buy anything from IBM. I'm sure IBM knows this as well. It would be sheer idiocy for them to fullfill 8000+ orders at that price, even if it was their cost price. So in short, they...
