Some of you helped with my boot issue on the same computer, but that got solved, but now, I'm at a loss...never had problems like this on my machine, and this is a fresh install! I recently did a full wipe and reinstall (3 days ago), and things were running pretty well on the reinstalled...

Problem solved, folks! Essentially, my C: drive, which has no OS on it, has the system files, including the boot.ini and ntldr, etc. They of course point to my D: drive with the OS on it. A quick switch in HD boot priority from the drive with XP on it to the drive with the boot.ini crap...

Yes, I have. It's very odd, as this is a fresh install. I wiped both drives (full format) that had OSes on them when I did this reinstall, then did a full fresh install. It's very odd. Interestingly enough, in the Disk Managment window on the computer managment tool, it lists my C drive...

Ok, so I tried FIXMBR....no dice. It successfully rewrote the MBR, but I still get the boot error when the setup disk isn't in the drive. Honestly, this whole issue makes no sense to me...why would it boot with the setup disk in the drive, when I'm NOT booting from the setup disk?

Have you ever had any troubles with the heck of a warning they give? (May make all partitions inaccessible, etc.)

Well, my computer was going flaky on me....doing odd crap, so I did a clean wipe of both drives that had OSes on them (one was Vista RC1, the other XP). Installed XP, got everything in XP working fine, but when I boot, if the XP setup disk is not in a drive, I get a "Startup disk not found"...

Something tells me that if you put a 2.5 pound heatsink on your chip, the motherboard would warp pretty seriously in a few months. You'd have to build a custom device to support the HSF with the case somehow. I have an XP-90, and it cools just fine. It's considerably bigger than the SK-7 I...

Interesting....Well, I have a support ticket open with Epox, so we'll see what they say. This is really odd. Overall, it really doesn't matter that much...by the time I would need the extra 150MHz on my clock speed, I'll probably be dropping a dual core chip into my machine. Still, I'd like...

Which Epox board? My 9NDA3+ supported my 3000+ 90nm out of the box. No problems. My manual says that 'FF' is 'boot attempt', and lord knows what that means.

Not quite sure why your temps aren't lower considering your cooling, but it's still well within spec for A64's. They are supposed to run reliably until about 80C, but anything below 60C should be perfectly fine. That said, my machine (90nm 3000+ @ 2.3GHz) is running at 44C full load with...

Hello everyone. Just built my new system with an Epox 9NDA3+ and Winchester 3000+. Love the board so far, nice BIOS, and stable, BUT, while trying to max out my overclock, I'm at an interesting point. (system is in the signature) When I got to 250FSB, with the mem divider at 166, so the RAM...

One other thing to consider in this situation is adding a PCI SATA card, which would be locked. BTW, I have the same board (just built it), and I'm currently doing torture testing @260FSB (2340MHz). For some reason, the 2/3 mem divider won't work above 245FSB, so I am currently running my...

Liquid_Table...is yours a 256MB 9600 Pro? If so, that's 400 effective, 200 DDR. I have a 256MB 9600 Pro, and it came clocked at 400/200(400). 128's come clocked at 400/300(600). They're talking the lower, non doubled number. FWIW, I got my 256 to overclock to 500/225(450). I run it at 490/220.
