If this is'nt the cause a new memory stick might fix it. Bad memory can cause these types of problems and some of your error messages refer to memory. Dave |

| 263475 | 2004-08-22 23:40:00 | Teldave, thanks for that suggestion, I will get the son-in-law to do the "pulling", the only time I saw this done was on an old 286 and the serviceman of all people didn't earth himself, gives off quite a spark eh. That was on Company PC. Will send Posts over to s-i-l as this appears to be a more drastic fault than the previous ones. Boys' at the age of these 2 shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a PC!. Les 3. |

| 263476 | 2004-08-22 23:52:00 | Graham, have tried the latter options of your post: the Sys C: was one of the first attempts I had made. The Cab file came up with a few details, Volumes etc., a very large file 5mg almost. The last phrase reads: data error reading drive C Abort, Retry, Fail? Retried 5 times Fail= Fail on Int 24. Thanks to all replies, will get the son-in-law to pull the back off. Believe it or not he works for Switchtec now called Powerware. Les 3. |
