Memory used to be OK to 500 so I thought I would try for a bit higher....
Booted at 130x4 (520) and started XP - Well sort of....
Couple of program error dialogues then rebooted....
Error messages that system files were corrupted or missing and said to boot from CD and Select Repair option..
So exactly what are you supposed to do when you get to the prompt in the windows directory? Not exactly the most helpful of recovery programs !!!
It's been a few months since the last OS re-install and I have made quite a lot of hardware changes so I gave ip trying to repair the install and just reformatted the partition and re-installed from scratch..
I think its time I made a backup set of CD's of the "clean" install since it can take quite a while to download all those OS upgrades.
