OT - Still having computer problems
I recently managed to salvage my old computer onto a windows 7 machine,
all is working and good! However the experience has left me nervous of having no back up machine sitting switched off but ready to go with windows 7 on it, and I thought it would be handy to test run my backups to make sure they worked. I thought I would resurrect my old machine, started off renewing the hard drive but that didnt clear the problem (it is not going through the boot sequence tries to start windows but dumps you into the repair screen and then retries and keeps going in cycles) so I assumed it must be the motherboard or processor, so I have just fitted a new one of those but it still has exactly the same problem. I should say the Hard drive (s) I have tried all work fine and boot up on other machines Can a dodgy power supply cause these sort of problems? if not what is it likely to be? At this stage I realize it would have been easier (and quicker) to just buy a second working machine but I was lured into this course of action and am now being stubborn and dont want to be beaten! My fixation in windows 7 is just because its the last version that my Label station printer software works on and changing to the new software would involve rewriting thousands of Labels -- Charlie Pridham, Gardening in Cornwall www.roselandhouse.co.uk National collections of Clematis viticella & Lapageria rosea |
