Title: Re: XP Pro Half Install
Post by: SeCrEt_NiNja on June 07, 2003, 10:18:38 PM
Hello everyone,

I have this very annoying but strange problem which is as follows:

Having purchased a TravelMate 230 Laptop with XP Home installed. I decided to clean install XP Pro. The install all goes fine howerver when ever a scan disk is run I don't get to see hte information screen that scna disk displays, all I get to see is a blank black screen. I know that scan disk is running because I get lots of hard drive activity. I have got in touch with Acer Tech support but they put me onto M$ and they have been unable to find a fix for it. As a side note I have also tried just upgrading XP Home to XP Pro but I still get a black screen for scan disk, does anyone know how to fix this?

Cheers,

Nathan
