OptionsAmpdChaos Member Posts: 130this is what i did to cause it... I used snapshot on my primary hd and loaded it to an spare one i had... just to see if i could swap it out and see if it works... I still have the primary one but i wanna see if i can load the secondary one... i did a chdsk already... it set to autologon so theres no option for me to change my username... any other suggestions?? thanks ahead of time...
