Can't boot into Safemode, hangs trying to start the Recovery console or Repair when booting from the XP CD.
Google, and MSKB aren't much help.
Any ideas?

have you tried System Restore from a command prompt?
I see what you mean Shamus - two pages on google and refer to two people. One happened with autopatcher, the other with sp2....
What happened with your machine? Is there any numbers? file names? Is it even a proper bsod? Is this a machine with deep freeze on it?
pure guess... pull the nic and reset bios to defaults with update nvram/escd enabled.
Whatever this is, it's low level.
2k version
Seems this problem was fixed with SP2... but apparently you have mismatched ntdll and ntosknl files...
I did...no go. It has worked for me in the past but not on this machine.Quote:

Thanks Bev! :kiss:
so was this xp box not sp2?
I don't know.
I'm still trying to access the drive...NTFS4DOS gets an interrupt by divide by zero, stack: F44C 198A 0426 0000 13C5 35CA 657D 198A 84DC 0000 0000 0000 359E and then the machine freezes. Person does taxes for people so blowing away the drive and doing a fresh install isn't an option.
Any free software you know of that will let me access the drive?
Youch.... time to pull the drive and stick it in another machine as a slave....
as for software, the usual suspects... pcinspector.de
Yeah...in the process right now. Better than dealing with NTFS from DOS. :)
why don't they make back ups? Their businesses depend on one hard drive usually with a one year warranty and they expect it to live for ever.
