Try this link: http://www.algintech.com and look for u-promote. It can demote a PDC or a BDC to a standalone server, and vice-versa. Hope it helps. There is always an explanation!
But maybe we don't know it.
The truth is out there!
First of all, yuo have to "see" your CD-ROM from BIOS. Check if second IDE channel is enabled in BIOS. If yes, then autodetect should be OK for it. If CD-ROM is seen at boot (before starting W98), try to make a Win98 startup floppy (it has CD-ROM support), and boot from it. If booting...
HI! I have run into the same problem. We have a cooperation with an other company. Rare, maybe once in two months somebody from that company came to us, with a Laptop, which has the same NIC (Xircom). Each time we spend several hours trying different settings to make our LAN "visible"...
For Windows NT4 exists a way to upgrade single processor to multi-processor, using uptomp.exe contained in Resource Kit. Try to find something similar for XP. If you don't find anything, you could mail to Microsoft Tehnical Support.

HI, do you have an antivirus software installed ? If it has a file monitor (look in system tray) staying resident, it could be set to verify the boot of the floppy from time to time. I once long ago ran into this problem, and got rid of it by unchecking the box near "scan floppy" (or...
No, it should be OK. See if jumpers are set up correctly on all the connected devices, on both IDE channels, your Maxtor HDD and your CDRW should have jumpers set on MASTER, your Quantum HDD and the CDROM should have jumpers set on slave. If so, see if BIOS detects both CD drives at boot-up, if...
Almost the same thing happened, a HP PII-400 was randomly resetting itself, maybe several times a day, and maybe several times consequently, the behaviour became more often and often. First step was : backup user data->format HDD->Reinstall Win95->restore user data. No joy, PC kept rebooting...
You could also try to take out the harddisk, and put it as slave or secondary master in another NT machine. Then drive contents can be made accessible. In the worst case you have to take ownership of files and folders of the HDD as administrator on the machine you put the drive in. There is...
You should try to boot DOS or WIN9x command prompt from a floppy (maybe one of your friends could make you a win95 boot floppy).You should copy a text file on the floppy too (about 10-20KB) If you can do this, boot DOS/command prompt, type "Ctrl+P", then type something in the command...
BIOS resides in flash PROM which comes from " PROGRAMMABLE READ ONLY MEMORY". So you do have very little chance to change BIOS bootup screen. Contents of the flash may be changed (if enabled by jumper or by BIOS), this is the case when you upgrade your BIOS firmware. My advice is to...
Assuming you are user "myname", your Desktop Layout is stored in c:\winnt\profiles\myname\desktop folder. If you have read access to it, you can copy its content somewhere in a safe place on your harddisk. You can then restore it anytime (if you have "change" permision on the...
