Inaccessible_Boot_device .. ?

[jynxycat]

Just set up my A64 3000+, everything from the BIOS to the Windows 2000 start up screen work great...

 

Halfway into "starting windows 2000", a BSOD pops up about Inaccessible Boot Device.

 

 

I swear I've seen something before about changing something in the BIOS to correct this.. but I can't locate it.

 

 

BIOS are just whatever came shipped, IDE Hard Drive, and Win2000.

is this a fresh install of Win?, if not i would do a fresh install.

 

if it is a fresh install, have you added anyhardware to your system? any OC?

i think you have to have SP4 or later to install win2k...but since you didnt put what hdd's you have in your sig i cant tell you if thats part of it or not

 

expand your sig a lil more...include bios version too

Well, fixed.

 

I took my HD out, put it in my friends PC, backed up a good portion of my HD on one of his.

 

Reformat.

 

Re-install 2000.

 

 

Oh well, it was time to reformat anyways

 

 

I did double my score in 3dMark in the end, so i'm happy.

 

 

 

Question, whats the option in the BIOS for CPU voltage? Maybe I'm just blind..
