I seem to have endless problems with my PC!
The latest in the long set of probelems is the system fan.
When I power-on my pc the sysytem fan starts-up. Then stops ( a long beep is heard). Then starts again(sometimes).
I have verified that the connections are fine and...
I haven't tried the reverse & I doubt its working.
U see this is a RAID controller being used as a IDE adapter.
And any RAID setup uses only hard-disks... not ROMS.... Yeah there is no harm in trying.

I have tried this:
Connected 1CDROM on Mobo-iDE and HardDisk on PCI_IDE
On BIOS I have set it to boot from HD follwed by boot from CD-ROM.
The PC boots (ie POST) followed by the it8212 screen, which shows my HD as primary master.
But it never boots from HD it just stops at booting from...
Has anyone tried this?
I have been trying to get this to work with now success.
One question, do I need to reinstall the OS? Are there any settings in BIOS that I need to change?
~RKR
Can anyone guide me? I have a PCI-IDE (iTE 8212) Card and want to set it up in non-RAID ie IDE mode so that I can use both my IDE Hard Disks.
I want to boot from the HD connected to the RAID controller.
OS: WinXP SP3

There can be many reasons why your TC is not running.
How do you launch it?
Usually the tc.exe file is present in <tc-home>/bin path. That is what I click on to launch it.
If you are running it in Vista you would have to turn on compatibility mode for XP(if vista has such a...
Thanks Deepak,
I have both the CD's and I have used them before and they have worked fine for me.
Now, I have changed my Mobo-proces-etc and the CD does not work.
If you have a compaq-HP PC be advised, those recovery/quick-restore CD's are specific...
@saqib_khan:
I have tried a clean install too. Ie format - followed by OS install... (did not work). And yes CDROM is first boot device.
@Pimpom:

Hello kumarn_2004,
I don't think you would lose data if you password protect a drive already having data.
If you can, try copying the data into your m/c and then giving a password. That way even if the data is lost there is no issue.

Thanks gk2k!
That was exactly what I was fearing!
Is there a way out? Any tutorials on the net that tell how-to?
I have shelled a bomb for that compaq-presario. Now I do not want to buy another copy or work with a pirated OS.
Hello,
I have a strange problem...
I upgraded my pc with a new h/w (mobo,RAM,processor retaining everything else).
Post assembling I tried to install the OS but it would not load...
I just see the msg "booting from IDE cdrom etc" and the rest is all junk on the screen and it does not...
Ok. I wanted a MoBo with a Internal Graphics Card.
Some other digitians have suggested Gigabyte GA-EG41MF-S2H (5175 Rs/-) along with Intel E7400 @5875/
The ones above are good but a tad expensive, and the form factor is "Micro ATX Form Factor; 24.4cm x 24.4cm" That is what I am...

Its the virus. Nothing else. The Win32.sality flavor of viruses when infected tamper with the executables. There is nothing you can do now. The virus might be gone but its effect still lingers. Look around and you might notice plenty of executables that do not work.
Reinstall firefox. Thats the...
