I broke 7100... temporarily
Well I've just had an interesting morning. When I went to boot W7, I got a corrupt system warning. It wanted to do a sys. restore to try to fix. That didn't help. Put the 7100 CD in and it said boot record corrupt, want to repair? yes. Didn't help. Went through a bunch of diagnostics. No joy, but I could boot into my other OS to save my app data just in case. Only thing I could think of that I had change was in msconfig/advanced options I had check the use 4 CPU option and the maximum memory option. Finally got into safe mode with cmd. prompt and opened msconfig. Unchecked both boxes and everything back to normal.
Anyone else seen anything like this?
Thanks to these forums and learning a bit about the cmd. prompt I was able to get myself out of a total reinstall. Thanks.
