Tech Clinic / Windows XP Installation Stuck in Safe Mode
« on: January 26, 2004, 08:10:05 PM »
Can't you go into the bios, set the computer to boot from the cd, insert the xp cd, boot from it, and then select repair installation?(you'll have to change it back to booting from the harddrive at some point, maybe even the first time it reboots)

Well, as long as you're not losing half the image or framerates when it reads it as 32, doesn't sound like there is a problem. I don't think there are official voodoo drivers for anything non-9x, so it's probably just a quirk because of that. If there was something actually wrong, you would notice it in the games since I'm pretty sure each chip gets a dedicated 32 MB, since everything has to be doubled.(in which case, it's basically an effective 32 MB, I think it comes out a bit higher since not absolutely everything is doubled, but well under 64)

Software / Windows XP 64-Bit Edition

Well, right now I'd stay away from XP 64 as I don't think it's officially out yet and is probably still quite buggy.
But once it's out I'd recommend switching to it(unless it has some new spy software from microsoft), if there is any performance decrease with 32 bit programs it would be extremely small, plus you get to run 64 bit programs.

Software / Reactivating windows xp

Hey everyone, I recently installed windows xp on my computer on a 20 gig harddrive, since I was trying to get it working, I activated for some reason even though I wasn't planning on keeping it, and now when I formatted and swapped an 80 gig in, windows xp won't let me activate it.
I already installed service pack 1, and now when I go to activate xp, it says the number of time I can activate Windows with this product key has been exceeded, and it wants another.
Is there some set number of times you can activate windows xp, or do I have to wait 3 months?
