Re: system drive change?



Yes I found out that its some mcafee thing and have been trying to muddle
through their tech support crap to rectify it. Time will tell. Why did it
wait till this afternoon to start this stuff when it had been running fine
for days after I installed the new drive? Virus scan comes up with nothing.
I need to sit and hit F8 when I turn it on and tell it to start in the last
known good setting or something and when it starts if graciously recoginizes
the new drive and tells me so. :) I will keep hacking away till I fix it or
get mad and rip the new drive back out.

naiav5x.sys -this file ,which seems to be the cause of the
problem would be appear to relate to a McAfee product.
What McAfee product was or is installed? How was it
removed, if it was?

it just started this stuff while ago and thats why I found the system
drive info. I took a pic of one of the blue screens but dont know if I
can attach a cropped shot here or not. As for reinstalling the whole
works it would be easier to buy a new computer; odd that the thing ran
fine for 7 hours till while ago. as for the drive letters the old drive
is G and the new drive is C and thats where its booting from according to
everything I can findl I suppose I could yank the power to G(the old
drive) and make sure heh heh

bet it wont accept an attachment but it gives a bunch of numbers and
below it says naiav5x.sys address B7D30760, datestamp 42ae0eb6
the stop numbers are always different it seems

You need to sort out the BSOD first.

You are unlikely to be able to be able to change the drive
lettering for the system drive / partition from G. To try to do
so destroys all your registry links. The only way to change
the situation is do a clean install of Windows XP. You have
to back up every data file, reinstall every programme and
locate the software disks and latest drivers for every item
of hardware. Best to leave your system drive as G.

Can you provide a copy of the Stop Error Report?

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should
help by allowing time to write down the STOP code properly.
Keep pressing the F8 key during StartUp and select option
- Disable automatic restart on system failure.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until
you have resolved the problem. Check for variants of the
Stop Error message.

How do I change what System Restore sees as the system drive? I put in
a bigger drive last week but today am getting BSOD today and system
restore wont work. For some reason it sees the old drive which is G:
now as still the system drive and not the C; drive that everything is
booting from. I am running safe mode just to keep things going right
now.
