Two Hard Disc System - Crashes Boot Reports System Failure

Jul 17, 2005

I have a 2 hard disc system, Windows XP pro and most programmes run from the C Drive. A few, plus all my data run from the F drive. Over the last few days I have encountered a massive slowdown in getting the computer started - form certainly less than 5 minutes to over 20 minutes. I have not added anything to the autoruns at all.

Programmes and data (eg music) run fine if they are on the F drive, but if they are on the C drive they run incredibly slowly so music is fragmented and at times its like trying to wade through treacle to get anything done. I have been getting crashes of the PC with a message about a kernel problem... but haven't yet copied all the data from that to get the detail. When it crashes the next boot reports a disc boot system failure, when i reboot ahgain it loads up but painfully slowly. The C drive was defraggged just afew weeks ago. I'm thinking the drive is about to pack up....

Jul 1, 2008

After running a defragmentation, I received a message that 6 mb of system 32 did not defrag. the system ran, closed, then when booted up the next day I received the windows 32 error. I have an OEM windows xp installed in the computer, a pentium III gateway, and i understand that common recovery proceedures cannot be used with success, because the OEM versions have embedded passwords and such. I have not heard strange sounds from my hard drive, previous to , and subsiquent to the problem. I wish to run chkdsk,to see if this can resolve the problem, if the OEM version will allow it. Is this possible, and the fact that I have a D drive slaved to the c drive matter?

Cant Boot Since Power Failure

Mar 22, 2010

Ever since a power failure yesterday, my computer is not booting 100% of the way - it seems to stall at the end after loading desktop etc, can't see anything missing but I am unable to do anything. Nothing opens when clicked on. It works perfectly in Safe Mode with Networking.

I checked Device Manager and found 3 things highlighted:

HID Non-user input Data Filter

HID Non-user input Data Filter in HID section, and

WAN Miniport (IP) in Network Adaptors.

I do not have a wireless network, only a hard-wired one, so not sure what that is about.

Assertion Failure On Boot Up

May 26, 2006

every time I load up my PC (Win XP Pro, Mozilla Firefox) I get the following error box:
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Program: c:progra~1intern~1iexplore.exe
File: .lists.cpp
Line: 480
Expression:!(p==bodykwref.end())
For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts [note--I've tried this--it's all programmer speak and I'm just a novice trying to get rid of the error!]
(Press retry to debug the application-JIT must be enabled) [This works--for 10 minutes or so]
Abort Button Retry Button Ignore Button. I assume it's got something to do with iexplore, so I've reinstalled a couple times--no joy.

Disk Boot Failure On HP Computer

Feb 27, 2008

I've had this computer for a year and a half, and this is the third time it's done this. I want to know if it's something I can fix on my own - I dont' know much about computers at all. To get into setup, I have to press F1 from the start up menu. If I don't do that, it takes me to a black screen where it says, Disk Boot Failure, please insert system disk and press enter. I have taken this computer to a repair shop, where I have been charged 200 dollars each time I get this message. Please advise me on what I should do, or if I'm doing something wrong? I have windows XP and it has only one DVD/CD drive, no floppy or anything like that. It started doing it this time when it froze and then I pressed cntrl-alt-delete and got the above error message.
