Thanks, that put me on the right track!

I have a form that enables and disables controls based on whether there are any records in the table or not. For example, there is an Edit, and a Delete button that are only enabled if there are records and an Add button that is enabled at all times. Everything works as it's supposed to except...

Well, the issues seem to be over. I've rebooted numerous times and, with the exception of when I began using the wireless mouse and it was trying to find the signal, it's worked perfectly.

Just as I typed my last reply it happened again. Figures...

I would agree, however, it would happen just the same with an old PS/2 mouse and keyboard, and SP3 hasn't been installed. It seems to be working for the time being. I'm going to put it through its paces before I declare it "fixed", though. Thanks for the suggestions.

For now, I was able to get it to work using the "last known good" configuration. For some reason it seems to lose the keyboard too between the setup/BIOS screen and the actual Windows startup screen. Now that I'm in I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestions.

Will try. Thanks.

Fortunately, I'm pretty comfortable navigating Windows with just a keyboard, however, I wasn't able to to bring the focus to the login name, even using the tab key.

I was recently working on a Dell desktop computer (not sure of the model or specs as it is not mine) and upon reboot lost control of the mouse. The mouse in question was wireless and at first I thought it could be the batteries, but I tried quite a few, including several that were known to be...

Problem solved, everyone. Thanks for the help. The problem was that I was trying to slipsream manually, when I should have been using nlite the whole time. Thanks again!

Yep, I'm using a Mitsumi floppy from HP. I haven't had any problems so far with it being able to read from the floppy. If only I could get it to see the SATA HDD that easily.

Unfortunately, those appear to be the same drivers I tried before. Unfortunately again, I got the same result. I didn't slipstream them, though, although I have tried that previously. I have been using a USB floppy drive the last several times I tried the intallation.

That is absolutely the truth. The guy was giving me the run around and wouldn't give me the model number of the motherboard or anything. Maybe I'll see if I can't get someone different to talk to at Sony.

I chatted with a Sony rep on their live chat system. I didn't ask about a Vista-to-XP cd, but I had asked about drivers and his response was to check back later. I could tell he was working from a script. I'll see what I can find out about getting a cd from them. Thanks.

Unfortunately, there is no Advanced Setup Menu in the BIOS. There is "Main", which gives system info (BIOS version, Machine Name, Serial Number, UUID, System Memory, Hard Disk Drive, and system date and time); "Security", which deals with passwords; "Boot", which gives boot options (obviously)...

Nope, BIOS is the most basic I've ever seen. Only real options are to enable/disable boot devices and set boot order.

When I used the drivers from Intel I didn't get a blue screen but it still gave me the message about the the hardware not existing. I also downloaded the Storage Matrix drivers for their mobile boards, but there wasn't any way to make a floppy, it was just a regular installer, i.e, for when...

I have officially tried all of the drivers on the floppy and all of then led to a blue screen. Right before it blue screens a message comes up (very quickly) that says something to the effect of "the hardware you selected was not found". Which I find strange because I downloaded the drivers...

Ok, I tried an XP SP3 disk that we had, and it gets past the point that it was choking on. Now I can press enter to set up windows, but it doesn't see the hard drive, so it asks for the driver. Fair enough. The controller that is on this laptop is not listed, so I scroll down to where it says...

Yes, all data and partition information were wiped from the drive rendering it a blank, unformatted drive. Unfortunately, I don't have any spare 2 3/4" drives to swap in.
