Yep! I agree with you that the issue is likely to be hardware related. I never said that the issue is related to the MUP.SYS driver. I did note that the machine hangs after loading the driver, and after removing it it then hangs at APCI.SYS. Hence, the issue is not MUP.SYS. What I am...

Hi again, I want to thank you again for hanging in there with me. Your advice and opinions have been very helpful and I want you to know that I appreciate the help. I found a website with a lot of postings regarding the very problems I have been explaining here. The URL is...

more info ... I am using an AMD 800 MHz CPU. I do not know if it is a 100 or 133 FSB. I tried tweeking the clock speed of the RAM to be slower than the designated 133, through the BIOS down to 100Mhz and I got even further on the progress bar - now 5 blue squares. BTW ... what do you mean by...

You might have pointed me in the right direction! I will try this and see what results. Thanks fr hanging in there with me. I'll be in touch. Alistair

Did you check the IRQ settings for the IR port, COM 1 and 2? What are they? Do you have a serial cable to connect your phone to the laptop? When you said that you can transfer files - what exactly do you mean? Between what devices are you tranferring files and ehat kind of files? (is it the...

Wolluf, you were right! The repair did not work. I ended up reinstalling the OS after reformatting the hard disk. This time I formatted the hard disk as a primary DOS partition that could read the entire 10 Gigs, (instead of NTFS). Now, when I boot the computer, I have two OSes to laod -...

Thanks, I wiil try this and let you know how I fared. Alistair

I am not sure why you would at first have two IR ports listed at first and now only one, (was this found int the device manager or in Dial-up properties?) but I would encourage you to check the IRQ settings. Because modems use serial interfaces, you will find that you have to be careful how you...

Yes, I have four boot floppy disks that when first loaded, allows me to load the OS from the CDROM. At which point do I access the recovery console? Thanks,

Hello wolluf, my computer really has nothing other than a mouse, keyboard and a monitor connected to it. I have disabled every option that the computer will not require to boot in the BIOS, (I think). I also am wondering if I have a hardware issue of some kind or if it is a driver related...

Hello mrfixit, my CDROM is not bootable, so I am not even certain if I can even get to the recovery console ... How do I get there? ackee

Hi Packdragon, I saw this discussion thread before I posted my request and though informative, none of the suggestions that you made have resolved my problem. "alanwpchen" was at least able to get some progress resigstered on the progress bar: ("By the way, which device is windows checking...

I recently loaded Windows 2000 Pro on my computer and it will not boot after what appears to be a successful installation. (I have loaded the OS three tiimes) On powering up the PC, it boots and passes the POST. It also gets past the screen where I am allowed to press F8 to boot up in safe...
