I put one together from the update on the asus site, but the cat file and some others where missing. It worked however and the system is now up and running. Need to install the local network and do some more testing and then... overclocking time. klaas |

Hi,
I ****ed up the system badly and had to reinstall xp. I used F6 and accepted the software from the diskkette. When XP installed the driver it said (again did that also yesterday) that it wasn't an official XP tested driver (something with no logo) and asked if i wanted to use it anyway. I choose no this time and went on with the installation. I was suprised xp could start from the hard disk without that drivers. Perhaps it was just one off the components. Any ideas on this? The reason i ****ed up the system was very simple. I inserted a web cam on one off the USB ports to test if they worked. The cam was detected so i pulled out the usb-cable and... got a blue screen. After that it wouldn't restart from the hd. Seems like the boot record was messed up. After installing xp again i tested this again and.. this time a blue screen but it would restart. After restart it give an notification that the system recoverd from an sirious error and if i wanted to transmit a report to Microsoft. Testing the same thing on the other computer wiht an A7N8X-X in stead off the deluxe version gave no problems. How can i fix this problem? (exept from shutting down the system before removing usb cabels) Klaas On Mon, 3 Nov 2003 01:09:48 -0000, "Ben Pope" wrote: JustMe wrote: Hmmm my SATA HD came in sealed plastic no floppy/drivers either.
