hi people,
I'm having lots of problems with my new PC. I'm hoping
you guys can help me out, please.
Specs: Intel Desktop Board D875pbz.
Western Digital 40G HD.
Yamaha CRW3200E (CD writer).
Pioneer Dvd-Rom.
Samsung Floppy Drive.
Intel Pentium 4 2.4 Ghz.
Radeon 9200
Anything else you guys need to know, just let me
know.
okay here are the problems:
1. i can't boot from the Cd rom (windows xp cd). i
checked my bios settings and it doesnt even detect the cd
rom or dvd rom. it does detect my floppy and HD tho.
2. when i try to access my floppy drive thru windows
explorer or my comp, i get the following error
message :"A:/ is not accessible. No ID address mark was
found on the floppy disk."
3. I can connect on the internet but when i try to log in
to hotmail, ebay, etc.... i get "this page can not be
displayed... blah blah blah."
My problems started when i wanted to Clean install XP. i
got my cd and tried to boot from Cdrom but bios didnt
detect it so i just went into windows and opened up the
cd and tried to delete the partion but that didnt work so
i just installed over my then current XP (hoping it would
some how read my mind and know i wanted a clean install
ha ha, not). since i have this "new" xp on, the IE
problem occured. i then bought a floppy drive to just
get a boot disk and do a clean install from there but now
i'm having problems w/ the floppy drive!
All i want to do is a Clean Install! Please help!
Thanks for reading all this and thanks in advance for you
help!
