Folks,
My one month old barebone system just crashed (BSOD):
Asus P5LD2-VM DH
Pentium D-805
Memory 1 GB (two days ago added another 1 GB)
Onboard Audio and Video
Seagate 320GB SATA harddisk
3 partition: Primary-NTFS, Primary-HFS+, Logical-FAT32
O/S: WinXP and OSX, sharing data in FAT32
So ... I was running Thunderbird in WinXP, which I put its Global inbox in FAT32 (in purpose of sharing email data between O/S'es) .. Then, suddenly it crashed as above ...
I've done my homework for troubleshooting preparation as you may find below, and my question is:
- Do you think chkdsk could solve this problem?
- Since the file allocation structure "damage" is happen to my FAT32 partition, do you think there is any chance to save data?
- Do you think this error related with hardware problem (damaged disk or new memory)? If so, how can I check that?
Thank you so much in advance for kind comments and assistance.
