crcdisk.sys and Vista Enterprise total system meltdown dell xps 41
Running Microsoft Vista Enterprise on Dell XPS 410 w/ Dual 250GB SATA drives
on internal Dell SATA (intel) RAID controller using raid level 1. System ran microsoft update to install updates and i also installed the update for the creative sb x-fi sound card that came with the system. upon rebooting the system will continue to start loading and then restart. I tried the system in safe mode and it got to crcdisk.sys and restarted. I used my vista enterprise dvd and tried system repair and that did not work. i then went back to the dvd and ran the system restore option to restore to the oldest (1 week ago) option and that didnt work. I tried to run the system none of the cards except for the video card installed and that did not work. I went to the system recovery option and went into the registry to see the last driver that failed and gave it a start value of 4 so it would not work and this option gave the same problems. i then went into the registry and gave the start value of 4 for the sound blaster card and the nvidia driver and still the same error. any ideas, etc would be greatly appreciated. |

Chang the sata drive config from bios there are 2 options ATA and one other w which i dont remember now. Try changing the option. you should be able to boot. This is known issue with Dell. -- Siddhesht Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
