NOFX February 23, 2003 Share NOFX Member February 23, 2003 So I do a format today and put ntfs on instead of fat32. So now my comp is really slow bringing up windows and it sometimes seems like it might lock up. But after a few minutes of running, I can hit alt+ctrl+del and end the process run32dll.exe and everything starts working perfect.....btw Im using Xp pro...anyone know how I can set it to not run that program or fix this whole issue?

Guest ZDamage February 23, 2003 Share Guest ZDamage Guests February 23, 2003 in the start button, go to run. Type in MSCONFIG and in there you can disable it from starting up when your computer starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOFX February 23, 2003 Author Share NOFX Member February 23, 2003 Let me add this.....I now install CS, it takes me forever to connect to a server and my choke is 100!?!? I have no idea what the deal is, and ive done 2 reformats today. the second one, I selected Format and partition using NTFS, not the one that say NTFS(quick). It runs a better now, but still has problems accessing the cd drive and certain folder like network connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOFX February 24, 2003 Author Share NOFX Member February 24, 2003 well i found a way to convert back to fat32 without having to write zeros to the drive.....Windows setup will only allow for NTFS, if that is the current file system. I downloaded the newest WD boot up disc, works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asphyxiator March 5, 2003 Share Asphyxiator Member March 5, 2003 Just use Fdisk and type Fdisk /mbr. That wipes your boot records. Works on any type of File allocation table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
