    Error \Device\Harddisk1\DR1 - DR4 Then It just Directs me to Desktop


    Error \Device\Harddisk1\DR1 - DR4 Then It just Directs me to Desktop


    Okay, I just recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate. When It done installing, Then I tpye my username and password. Then The error Appears "Error \Device\Harddisk1\DR1 - DR4" Then i click Continue. Redirects me to Desktop. Then I intalled the Wireless Adapter, Its just randomly freezes, When ever i do something (Like 5- 10 Minutes)




    I know its XP. It should Say Windows7 7 Because I don't feel like restarting it again.


    Windows 7 Ulimate Clean Install.

    Thanks.

    First thing I would do is read this.
    How to Distinguish a Physical Disk Device from an Event Message
    to get a better idea of the exact nature of your problem.
    If you have a usb device like a printer connected. I would remove it for the time being.

    Well the first thing I notice is your disk is reporting as hdd1 instead of hdd0 which is the typical boot location.
    Anything is guess work since I don't know what your harddrive profile looks like.
    Does the machine boot properly if you choose Safe Mode

    C:/ is Windows XP

    ah okay I was thinking you were in 7 this whole time. Okay you're booting the xp side.
    I think you need to have a go at startup repair.

    Yeah I was using XP, Because Windows 7 Just freezes.

    Okay, I went on Safe Mode:

    Everything Looks Fine. Then I reboot again to Normal Windows 7, It just freezes after 5 minutes.


    So I do the Startup Repiar?
