Disk Management System Crashed
Jul 18, 2010System crashed last night with a Kernel Stack Inpage Error, but restarted fine ... while diagnosing, I tried to get in to Disk Management through Admin Tools/Computer Management, and received the error, "Unable to connect to Logical Disk Manager service". I checked, and the service was disabled (why?), so I set it for manual and restarted it, still received the error.Oddly, I was able to start it from a command prompt, which then allowed it to start from Admin Tools. What just happened here? Is that service normally disabled? If not, what would cause it to become disabled? Could a virus, worm, or rootkit have snuck in?

May 20, 2005I'm trying to fix my mate's PC. It's a Packard Bell with pre-loaded XP Home purchased May 2004. Apparently he got the SP2 update and then the whole thing crashed!Now on starting it is gives the F8 options (safe mode, etc) but choosing any of them results in an endless reboot. He has no Recovery Disks (floppy or CD) - a mistake I know! I'm at a loss and can't even (last resort) re-install from scratch because it was pre-loaded and have no XP CD

View 14 Replies View RelatedUSB2 And Pro Crashed My Hard Drive
Jul 20, 2005My PC had 6 USB1 ports - I upgraded by adding a 2-port USB2 card, with a USB2 4 port hub. When I had XP Home, all was fine. I then crashed my hdd, so bit the bullet, got a new drive, and XP Pro and started again. The (Via) USB2 card was bought new, as was the 4 port hub - I have the driver CD for the card. According to System Manager, everything's fine, working correctly. But every time I try to use my USB2 memory stick in one of the 4 ports on the hub, it comes up with "This would work faster with USB2 - put it in one of the 4 unused ports", which is unmitigated b/s as it's already IN one of them - changing makes no difference.

View 1 Replies View RelatedInstalled New Hard Drive / System Crashed / Drivers Missing?
Oct 22, 2007Installed new hard drive, along with XP Home (recovery disk).Before my system crashed all my motherboard drivers were on D: partition.XP loads okay, but it is unstable - for example I cannot start msconfig under "Normal" start up. It crashes. I will not list all the BSOD - but XP doesn't like something.I have no devices connected apart from basic graphics card (which XP loaded the drivers for okay). I am waiting for XP Pro to be delivered, so I am hoping that my unstable XP will become stable after I upgrade (or full installation) of a retail version.
Prior to installing my current XP (one time of at least 30 others - as kept crashing),I tried to load my motherboard drivers from the disk my manufacture supplied.is it possible that my XP Home is unstable BECAUSE I do not have my motherboard drivers loaded? That might seem a naive question - but I honestly do not know, and I've started to become a tad paranoid as these problems have been ongoing for 5 weeks.

May 16, 2006My hard drive recently crashed and I reinstalled windows xp, the copy i brought with the product key turns out to me fake or blacklisted by Microsoft, the problem is i scanned the disc used for installation and it contain more than a few adware programs and viruses. My PC is operating noticeably slower than before the crash, I scanned my RAM with MemTest. There is also a couple adware programs that comes up in processes, only bitdefender blocks it from popping up when using the internet. Also my Primary IDE channel is using PIO Mode instead of DMA, ive heard this can be because of viruses, should I reinstall windows?Could this mean the windows has been modified and what should i do?

Nov 30, 2005I use Windows XP Professional OS on an Intel Pentium 4 PC with 512 MB RAM. Presently I have a single disk drive of 40 MB which has been divided into three logical drives C, D and E with total sizes of 20, 10 and 10 MB respectively.
I now want to add a second disk of 80 MB capacity and would like to increase the total size of the three existing logical drives to 40 MB each.Is there a feature available in Windows XP that will permit me to do this without having to reformat the existing 40 MB disk drive ?I have certain software installed in the PC for which the setup files are not available. Reformatting the existing disk drive will result in the loss of these applications. I would also not like to add more logical drives i.e. F, G, H etc.
