To everyone that has XP and can't
get it to install for some reason or
another. Most of the time it is just that
the cd-rom is a peice of junk. I have had
new ones that would not install certain
files and have a corruput XP install.1.No IE when insatlled.
2.Intermittent errors.
3.Secondary controller drops off.I have had several errors with different
cd-roms. It seems that the older the drive
I have no problems. DVD will mess up too. My
burner and some of my new cd-rom (epox and
creative seem good). Try to replace your
cd-rom with a different one and that should
take care of most of the install inssues
from file loss.Also some Gefore2 MX cards are pure crap.
Do not buy a $100 Gerfore card thinking
it is gonna be great cause it sucks. I have
two Gerfore. One I paid $369 for last yr
and one I paid 76 for last week, and the
76er sucks. Intermittant reboots for no
reason and lock ups. I put in another
card any card and errors cease.If you have complaints abouts my comments
you can send it here lovit@oreat.doodoo :)
