ANY HELP here???

Please do the following in the exact steps. Failure to do so could make the boot.ini damaged and cause unstable or unusable results with your system.:

Save a Backup Copy of Boot.ini

1. Click Start, click Run, type sysdm.cpl and then click OK.
2. Click on the Advanced tab, and then click Settings
3. In the Startup and Recovery area at the bottom click Settings.
4. Under System Startup click Edit. This opens the Boot.ini file in Notepad ready for editing.
5. In Notepad, click File on the Menu bar, and then click Save As.
6. First in here change the location in the top white drop down box to Desktop. Then in the file name change to Boot.old and save as Text Document(*.txt) and save it to your Desktop and then click Save



Please copy and paste all the lines from your Boot.ini file in your next reply.

Now did you save a copy of this before you move on to the next steps?

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS.0="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

Redo the steps in post 3 till you get down to line #4
Take out the two highlighted lines and then save the file.
Reboot and let me know how it works now.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, now I am working with a single OS in my computer .. YOU’RE GREAT !!
But I still have a problem with my Audio Device, please find me a solution..

my computer will always upon initialization asked for the audio device on high definition audio bus driver from my cd every time i opened up, but by the time i install it from the “Found New Hardware Wizard” which asks my cd (motherboard) it simply cannot read the driver i install - it cannot play the windows media player and displays this pop-up window "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There may not be a sound device installed on your computer, it may be use by another program, or it may not be functioning properly",

If you wish to see the real problem, we could connect at Windows Messenger through remote assistance, or you can download TEAMVIEWER 5 and i can inform you the details

[rshaffer61]

Is this a name brand system or a custom build?
If custom build do you have a drivers disk for the motherboard?
If you don't then I need the motherboard make and model number.

[nunezbacalla]

This a custom build, I do have the Mother Board Disk, i tried installing it for several times, but it never worked

[nunezbacalla]

I tried your suggestion at the top but it never worked

MOTHER BOARD:

Model : AMD690GM-M2
Chipset : ATI RS690/RS690M
Southbridge : ATI SB600
LPCIO : ETI

BIOS

Brand : Phoenix Technologies, LTD
Version : 6.00 PG

[rshaffer61]

OK then lets make sure the audio is enabled in the bios.
Reboot the system and at the first post screen tap the Del key normally and it should get you into the BIOS
In there find either the Advanced, Onboard or Integrated Peripherals areas.
Using the keyboard arrow keys scroll down to the Audio entry and make sure it is Enabled and if not then look at the bottom of the screen it will tell you how to adjust or modify the values to Enable it.
When done make sure to click F10 to Save and Exit with the setting.
You will then be asked to click Y to Verify the Save and Exit
The system will now reboot with the new settings saved.
Let me know if this helps.
