The device manager stated window could not load this driver for microsoft system management bios driver and intel (r) 82801eb usb2 enchanced host controller - 24dd. I have run windows service pack 2 but still not resolved it.
And also my pc is running very slow during boot and browsing. For your information my pc is p4 3.06ghz. I have run hijackthis program, but dont understand its content which is to be removed.
I had to reinstall XP and computer runs very slow on boot.
Under device manager, there was an exclamation beside "Microsoft System Management Bios Driver". Iwent to a help site and it said to just unistall it.
It had the yellow exclamation point next to it, with an error 39 I believe.
Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

But they were both installed and maintained (updated) equally.

The old XP Home was on drive C and the new XP Pro is on drive E. I am now ready to reclaim drive C disk space and tried formatting it. However, it appers as the "system" drive, while the new HD (E) appears as "boot". I realized I wont be able to format it until I make E drive system and boot together (which usually appears as "system"). Eventually, I would prefer that the new disk will be labeled C

View 3 Replies View RelatedSince installing Windows XP SP2 (upgrade from SP1) I noticed that Standby does not function. When I manually go to Standby, or if my laptop tries to go into Standby as per the power management settings I have set, I get the following message: "Standby has been prevented by the Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard device driver. You may need to install an updated driver."
Any ideas on what I can try. I have tried uninstalling the keyboard in safe mode and rebooting to reinstall the keyboard drivers. I have also checked my BIOS settings, and tried resetting the power management settings. I have even updated my ATI video adapter drivers. I noticed the problem shortly after installing SP2. There are no updated drivers available from Gateway for the keyboard.
Is there anyway to see the BIOS boot order (1st CD, 2nd Floppy, 3rd HDD) through windows XP (possibly a registry key or something)? I ask because I need to make sure all of the computers in my department are set to HDD first and not CD incase they have a non-bootable CD in the drive and a power outage (or Windows Update) causes a reboot.don't want to goto every computer, and would like to do this all remotely.

Is it possible to boot without any OS?I just want to access the BIOS setting.I use the OS saved in the floppy to boot up the computer, only once in a while can boot it up.The same happens for boot from CDROM.
How can i boot from a cd with a BIOS that doesn't support booting from a cd, the only options that it gives me are A & C drives to boot from. i know that it can be done.it's just that i lost the disk that i had the program on, i don't have the download of it and i cannot find it anywhere on Google.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a old Sony VIAO PCV-1112 with Windows XP. I was out of town (so I don't know what the trigger for the issue was) and came back to a black screen that begins with "Award Medallion Bios v 6.0". It also says "Hardware Monitor found an error. Enter power setup menu for details." At the bottom of the screen is shows: Press F1 to continue. F2 to enter setup.
a. Nothing happens when I press F2.
b. When I press F1, the Windows loading screen appears, but it fails to initialize XP and goes to a black screen that says that Windows failed to load...and it lists the prompts to reboot in Safe Mode, Normal Mode, Normal Mode with prompt, Normal Mode with Networking, Last Known Good Config, etc. No matter which mode I choose, it reboots and goes back to the Award Medallion Bios v6.0 message screen.
c. When I press Esc > F8 > F1, I am able to get the boot order to pop up and I selected boot from DVD/CD drive. I've tried putting various iso files on disc into that drive in the hopes of trying to get in to recover data files off the HDD. I tried rebooting with the ISO file in the DVD/CD drive, and nothing happens with any of these: Bit Defender; Kaspersky Rescue; or Avira Rescue. I rebooted with the Knoppix rescue ISO, and it actually initialized the DVD/CD drive for about 30 seconds - showed a black screen with a flashing prompt (couldn't type anything though) and then it went back to the Award Medallion Bios v6.0 message screen. I thought it might be the way I copied the ISO files; since when I copied them on my HP laptop, I got warning messages that not all related information would be copied. So I'm looking for an ISO copy app that might help with that? Unless I'm barking up the wrong tree...?
d. When I put in the Windows Recovery CD in that same drive, it does pull up the recovery GUI - but I don't want to loose my data. So it does recognize that Windows ISO.I'm at a loss on how to get into the VIAO hdd to try to copy down the data files that I need, before restoring Windows XP. Is there a way to connect my laptop to the PC to try to copy down the files? I'm a computer newbie, so I need a walk through on what to do.
I'm working on a Pav zt1130. Upon boot the message "A disk read error occured Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart". I've checked the BIOS and it does appear to be seeing the HD. I've changed the boot order and attempted to boot from WinXP Home CD. It displays the "Setup is checking your configuration" message, then nada. The user said that it was running fine yesterday, but she booted this a.m. and received this message. She had a non-bootable floppy and a non-bootable CD in, but I've not seen that to cause this problem. Just a coincidence? HD failure the real culprit?
View 6 Replies View RelatedFor some reason my antivirus stoped working. So I uninstalled it and tried to download AVG 8.0 but it gave me some type of error#, which I put it in googles and found out I had registry problems. From there I found a free registry cleaner program, and once I installed it, I had over 1,000 problems. The cleaner, however, after cleaning 100 problems it was requesting an upgrade which requires to purchase the program. I did not want to purchase so I uninstalled it. Than I found myself clever and installed it again to erase another 100 errors. I did that about 8-9 times, and I had about 300 errors left to clean when I found out I could not open ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS anymore therefore I was unable to uninstall the program. And not only that, I was unable to open windows messenger, or disk difragment

View 10 Replies View RelatedI left my computer in "suspend", and when I sat again, it was frozen at my BIOS screen. Each time I try to restart it, it goes straight to that screen. I can't even access my BIOS settings (pressing keyboard buttons doesn't work). Nothing changed when I placed my XP disk in the ROM drive.
I'm using an ASUS mobo and AMD processor (sorry, I can't recall the particular models right now). I have not changed any hardware or installed new software recently except anti-virus definitions.
Does this sound like a motherboard or PSU issue?

I tried to update my BIOS on my Acer AOA150 Netbook (I know, terrible idea, I wanted it to be updated in case I used a 9 cell battery). I downloaded the BIOS, version 3310, from http://global-download.acer.com/GDFi...&LC=en&SC=PA_7
I clicked on one of the readme files and it said to click on one of the executable files included in the download and to then click "sure." Once I clicked sure, my computer immediately shut down. I tried to turn it on after only about 5 seconds. It simply will not start up completely but I *can* get to the F2 screen. If I choose not to go with the F2 option, the normal Windows XP flashing image will come up, except it flashes slightly slower than normal. Then, right before the screen can display my various accounts to start windows, the netbook completely shuts off. This is an Acer AOA 150 model netbook. I downloaded the BIOS.
I may have tried to turn it on while the computer was still trying to flash the BIOS. Or, I just messed up from the start by trying to do it from Windows.
I have a Lenovo 3000 C100 hopefully you know what BIOS it uses and I want to put in a custom BIOS sound that play when I push the Power button. It would be nice if someone also gave me the download link to a Mac startup sound which I could use for BIOS
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get a machine up and running for a friend. It is one he bought off of someone up north and he doesn't know the admin password to be able to use it.
I originally was going to use some software I found in the forums that requires me to boot from a floppy or a cd. I checked the BIOS and have it booting from the hard disk last and yet I cannot boot from either the cd or the floppy.At this point I am willing to Fdisk the whole thing and start fresh. It shouldn't really matter since he has never been on the machine before and can't have any data that he would care about.
I have an old (but still very spry) AMD 850 Duron 20gHd, award Bios with XP Pro Sp1 updated to Sp2 via updates.Was reading about overclocking (which I know nothing about), and decided to change a setting in the bios to Enable," CPU temperature shut down" ?? not sure exactly what it was called but something very close to that. When I hit "Y Enter" the screen went black and that's how its been ever since. Ive tried tapping delete on start up and the XP CD but nothing .. just the black screen!Ps I've since read a number of reports referring to AMD chip temperatures being misread by bios's, sounds related maybe?

I am using Windows XP Home, Version 2002, Service Pack 2. I have gone into the Bios and made sure that Numlock is ON/ENABLED. I have checked the Windows Registry item, and it is set to "2". Also, the operating system has been registered with MicroSoft.
Where else in Windows can this be coming from? What else can I do/try to get the NumLock to be on at bootup?
