Hi All --
I'm posting this for a friend who doesn't have News access at
the moment. He'd really appreciate any help or advice. His name
is Gerry Brierley, e-mail: zetar@oeonline.com TIA
His story....
I have a 486dx2-66 computer. 4 megs ram ,730 western dig. HD , VLB,
trident video board and the 'puter is setup with 32bit disk and file
access. I have had to reinstall windows for workgroups 3.11 at least
8 times since I got this machine in late Feb! It never has allowed
me to reinstall over the existing version. The first series of crashes
may be related to a HD crash I had with a Conner HD which has been
replaced with the WD drive I have now, but I still crash . Reinstalled Windows again Friday, after getting "group file damage" messages when
I tried to reboot into Windows. No matter what I did, including deleting
the old group and recreating new groups, I still got the same message
with most of my groups going down. Finally I decided to reinstall Windows thinking maybe a file had gotten corrupted. I could not reinstall over existing windows, so had to install in new directory. Within 1 day after having MS office 4.3 reinstalled, Windows would not boot up. I can now
get it to boot up, but I must keep copying a system.bak file over the system.ini file. The system.bak file is the original .ini file loaded
with the Windows install. However I must keep doing the copy (in DOS)
over and over again!!!
I am totally stumped I feel the problem is in the 386enh section but it
is hard to be totally sure. HELP HELP I'm going crazy here. Is it
hardware or software???? Anybody had similar trouble? Hopefully with a solution:) Thanks in advance.
