Hi all
I cannot get my pc to boot. I'm running XP pro and no matter what option I choose - Normal, Safe mode, debug mode it freezes at the Windows xp flag screen just before it normally asks you to put your password in.
Now this has happened immediately after I ran Discwizard 2002 to try and copy my current c: drive to my new hdd (please see the thread in the Hardrive section: copying entire c
.
I set the program to copy and it seemed to be going fine so i left it. When returning to my com the program had finished (or at least I think it had) but there was no confirmation that it had been successful or anything.
So I rebooted my pc and it froze. I tryed the new hdd in IDE 1 to see if that works but that just came up OS load error so it obviously hasn't copied properly.
I try to boot from floppy but no joy. i try to boot from cd but it just keeps booting from the hdd even though I've changed it in the bios.
I've looked at my c: drive in DOS and all the files and folders seem there - can anyone help me I've got some really important stuff on there that I need tonight!!!!!
Cheers guys
