Hey

I'm Working on someone's system and the problem was that there machine wouldnt boot up so i tested there RAM and thats what the problem was. So i put in my test stick and it booted into windows fine. Then i did a reboot and after that it gives me this message:

Searching for Boot Record from IDE-0 ..OK

and than it just stays there for hours and doesnt load windows. I'm able to get into safe mode, ive done a system restore and it still didnt fix it. I'm not familiar with trouble shooting windows 9x ME that much.Any ideas??

Thanks

The bad memory corrupted some files, repair install for fix is my suggestion.
