Hi there! The first problem is about my boot. ini. . . If i start Win2k it tells me, that my boot. ini is corupted. As I checked it out (with activated visiblity of the system files), I found out, that it is missing.
Hi there!
The first problem is about my boot.ini ... If i start Win2k it tells me, that my boot.ini is corupted.
As I checked it out (with activated visiblity of the system files), I found out, that it is missing. So
my problem now is, that I don't know how do reconstruct it. Is there any tool, or could I do it myself.
I'm not sure, but I think, that I have got this problem since I used Norton Ghost to move my
Win2k-System from my old HD to the new one.
The second problem concernes the power management: I am not able to set my PC into the standby-mode,
although the hibernate-mode is working fine. Former none of them worked, till I've activated the APM.
Under Win98 and ME the standby-mode worked fine so the motherboard should also support it under Win2k.
My relevant hardware-details:
- 2 HD's
- Win2k is installed on the new HD (1st IDE-controller as master) in c:\winnt
- I've got a GA 686-BX from Gigabyte with the newest Bios-version
- the CPU is a PII running at 400Mhz
It would be really nice, if someone could help me.
Thanx in advance,
Brougs

Have you tried running the repair option off the Win2k CD?
