yeah - put the cd in the drive and let it boot, then choose repair an installation (I think) and run the automatic repair - saves you thinking too much :-) Jon -----Original Message----- From: Reische, Brenda L.

So I can, using the only configuration that boots, run a repair with that CD... I'll try that -- Thanks, Brenda Reische Application Support Analyst McDonough District Hospital www.mdh.org (309) 833-4101 -----Original Message----- From: Jon Tydda [mailto:Jon.Tydda at alcontrol.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2004 11:03 AM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: RE: [dba-Tech] Computer Problems If it's Win2k, I'd be inclined to run a repair from the install cd...

When turning it on, i see drive activity, but the monitor light doesn't go from amber to green, and there is no picture... i have swapped video cards, no difference. i put new mboard & proc, old memory & video -- boots but locks up frequently (5-10 minutes) i put new mboard & proc, new memory & old video -- won't boot since the video works with the new mboard/proc - i assume it is ok. i thought the lockups might be memory related, so i put memory from my working computer in there, and it still locked. any ideas on where you would go next???
