<0> it was
<1> define was
<0> some freak hard drive crash
<0> blue screens on load...wxp cd is detecting as UNKNOWN
<0> anyone have an idea?
<0> something that's bootable maybe
<2> buy a new drive that's bigger than the one that's ****ed
<0> if not something that works within xp that can repair the corrupt filesystem?
<2> run data recovery apps
<2> getdataback
<0> a blank drive?
<2> data has to go somewhere...
<2> can't put it back on a drive that's just **** itself
<1> and last thing you want to do is try to use a drive you are trying to recover off of
<2> word
<0> true that
<1> double true
<3> Can someone talk to me about the easiest way to multiboot 2 XP OS's, where right after I install the second XP and get it set up, right when I restart I will have the option to select either OS
<3> Oh and you wouldn't have to talk in lamens terms or whatever, I'm pretty damn puter literate .. so let me know ???
<3> anyone?
<4> hi
<4> My printer used to work fine, then one day when I tried to print, nothing happened..since then when I've tried to reinstall the printer driver, the software tells me "The specified port is unknown." Device Manager says LPT1 is working properly..any ideas what the hell could be wrong? i haven't been able to figure this out :/My printer used to work fine, then one day when I tried to print, nothing happened..since then when I've tried to reinsta
<4> sorry i pasted that twice
<3> yeah sounds like that printer is busted
<4> i dont think it's the printer
<3> have you hooked it to another computer and tried it?
<4> nope, unfortunately my laptop doesnt have a parallel port
<4> but you just reminded me i have an old laptop that may have one
<3> you should give that a whirl then you can see if its the printer or now .. and also try a different cablw just in case
<4> okay thanks
<2> coitus: physical union of male and female genitalia accompanied by rhythmic movements usually leading to the ejaculation of semen from the penis into the female reproductive tract
<2> notice it doesn't mention the female orgasm ?
<2> for a damn good reason too, bitches.
<2> IT'S OPTIONAL!
<3> freak
<5> When I play DVDs in windows media player 10, the screen is black. DVDs play fine in PowerDVD, though. Any ideas? XP Pro SP2
<2> use powerdvd to play dvd's ?
<5> lol...thats a good answer, but I'd like to know why WMP10 wont play it
<2> it's happened to me before too
<2> hence the smart*** answer
<5> how did you fix it
<2> waited 6 months, reinstalled twice and used powerdvd when i wanted to watch dvd's :D
<2> !google wmp10 blank screen playing dvd
<6> http://www.wmplugins.com/ItemDetail.aspx?ItemID=663
<2> could try some codec packs perhaps
<2> i know wmp10 does dvd by default, but that's not to say microsoft didn't make a mistake
<2> because we all know they're ****...
<2> :)
<6> :-p
<5> I tried the nVidia purevideo codec
<5> same ****
<5> I dont think windows media player includes a codec by defualt you have to install one, due to licensing issues
<2> quite possibly
<5> they cant give it away for free
<2> just found a codec pack/plugin for wmp9 to allow dvd playback
<2> !google wmp10 dvd playback
<6> http://www.generetic.org/pc-console-discussion/34637-no-audio-during-dvd-playback-wmp-10-a.html
<5> couldnt find anything on google
<2> could try a reinstall of it
<5> tried it
<2> http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/knowledgecenter/howto/play_cds_and_dvds_how_to.aspx
<5> lol read that yesterday
<5> I dled the MS software which shows which codec is being used > Cyberling PowerDVD is in use
<5> I switched to nvidia purevideo, same thing
<2> atleast it means something is broken, and you're not just some n00b :)
<5> lol
<5> nah Im far from a newbie
<2> and you tried playing dvds on wmp10 before installing 3rd party software, yes?
<5> Yes
<5> well I havent installed many 3rd party apps lately
<5> I think its nvidias fault
<5> I removed it, its still the same thing though
<2> i was implying 3rd party dvd software
<2> possibly
<5> I wanted to use their software to play h264 with hardware acceleration
<2> many apps these days **** with others
<5> I only have PowerDVD and I installed that before WMP10 (I had WMP9 originally)
<2> i was just thinking maybe wmp10 relies on dvd playback from it's own plugin/codec
<5> possibly
<5> but I doubt it cuz Microsoft cant give out the MPEG2 decoder for free
<5> since its not open source...they cant just give that **** out like its free pizza
<5> lol
<2> yeah
<5> I read on MS's site that its REQUIRED to have a dvd (aka mpeg2) codec installed before you can play DVDs with WMP
<2> free pizza rocks.
<2> try a codec pack perhaps ?
<5> I never receieved free pizza so I dont know how it tastes lol
<2> can't hurt...
<5> youre right
<2> free pizza is knowing a pizzadude :D
<5> Ill give something like that a try
<5> and fiddle with nvidias site (Their help site ****s)
<2> call thier store, make a false order
<5> lol
<2> most help sites do, unfortunatly :/
<5> other files play fine in WMP
<5> like MPEG1 porn plays fine
<2> lucky...
<2> no porn = certain death
<0> is there any free filesystem repair software
<0> that is self boot
<7> for what filesystem?
<0> ntfs
<0> still trying to get this hdd working =\
<7> chkdsk
<7> boot your xp cd, enter the recovery console, use chkdsk
<7> no better repair tool for ntfs out there
<0> it wont do any kind of bull**** non verbose format i hope
<7> just type "chkdsk c: /p /r" in the recovery console
<7> as long as the partition itself is accessable, it will do everything possible to repair the filesystem
<7> if the partition is no longer accessable, you have to repair the partition first before you can repair the filesystem
<0> what uhm folder is chkdsk in
<0> it cant find it in the default dir apparently
<7> did you boot into the recovery console?
<0> yes
<0> cant find autochk.exe apparently
<7> oh, autochk.exe is on the cd in i386
<7> d:\i386\autocheck.exe for example
<7> -e
<7> *autochk.exe
<0> its doing stuff
<0> woot
<7> if you used /p /r then it can take a long time
<0> ya
<8> so
<8> who has install vista
<9> yo i don't know if this question has to do with xp
<9> but is there a way to set the default font and size on word 2003
<7> ??? *cpu*
<10> Hi
<10> I have a wireless card and when I run a test it fails the loopback and interrupt tests... how would I resolve this? any suggestions?
<11> install the drivers for it
<10> I did, I am using the drivers to run the daignostics and it says loopback failed.
<11> what wireless card is it
<10> broadcom
<11> broadcom what
<11> be specific
<11> if you can
<10> Broadcom 802.11a/b/g Adapter
<11> model
<11> what MODEL is it
<12> did you install drivers prior to inserting the card?
<10> the card came with the PC i havent touched nothing inside
<10> I removed all the drivers and re-installed it to see if it works, but it didnt. It never detects my wireless network, so i ran the diagnostics and loopbacktest failed
<11> is it a PCI card, PCMCIA or minipci ?
<11> you are giving very little info.
<10> how can I find that out?
<11> what pc have you got
<10> hp pavilion zd8000
<11> desktop/laptop ?
<10> laptop
