Alright, I did the last configuration trick, it worked plus everything seems to be in order [and I can now sleep so that when I wake up I can work out the objectdock docklets eheh]. Sadly I won't be able to stare in awe at the Think Different boot screen again, that is until bootskin 1.0 final is out with 24bit color and all Thank you all for this bit of Christmas time - actually wincustom
it's 7h10am and I'm definitelly NOT going to bed b4 this is worked out Last known good configuration is working, let's see if everything is still there and working...
if ur concern for not letting me swap the screens because of file formats, i.e., zip-renamed-2-bootskin, then I can reassure you I am accessing the whole thing via another quasi-functional win2kpro thus being able to locate the default quasi-functional-win2kpro boot screen and copy-replace it over the bootskin one... the thing is I don't know where and what to look for... will you shed some light, pls? B
I'm still here - and how do I get into the command prompt? No, that I know, heck as I said I can enter the system via another [same partition] win2kpro that I never managed to delete [but will asap]!!! What I don't know is where to find the bootskin to delete and where I can look for the default to replace it with... Bootskin must manage this in a particular way... yrag, iplural, any hints? Seemingly the win2kpro isn't letting me to install over the system so the a.m.
Hya! Done the repair quite a few hours ago to no avail. Will try the install over procedure. Re F8 my comment was that after entering safe mode it just hung with a blinking cursor. It's 20 past 6am here so I think I'll get back 2 u tomorrow to let you know. BR
what should I do now? I've lost a day's work, could anybody pls help me uninstall bootskin via the other same partition win2kpro? Help!
neither have I... would that be in another part of the whatshumacallit?
This is the AMIBIOS my pc uses, you can find it on page 26 of this manual http://www.amptron.com/manuals/M810DLM4/810Ds52C.PDF . Mind you, I haven't checked if that's the motherboard my PC has...
The only thing I can think of is "S.M.A.R.T. for Hard Disks" with enabled/disabled options, that in the advanced setup section. But what is S.M.A.R.T for hardisks beats me Travis - you're referring to winbios, well... where's that? Sorry...
I'm navigating the AMIBIOS simple setup utility - version 1.21.12 and can't see anything like that Am I doing something wrong here? Of course I'll let you know
right, I'm in the bios Waiting for instructions... Btw, Gary, thanx for volunteering
Whew, it's been a few years... I can follow ur instructions though
Hi yrag - thanx. Did so but all I get is a flashing cursor...
Thanks a bunch Travis! I think I read bits of that thread, I'm going to look for it. If there are instructions for uninstalling bootskin from a different OS-same version I'll do it still instructions would be greatly appreciated. Re ibook it's an oldie but goldie [tangerine] - small 12" screen and slow processor/HD... but hey it works! ppl pls help [thanx again T]
Hi there! Yesterday I installed bootskin and downloaded half a dozen skins. I shut the system down. Today, I started the system only to stare at a still bootskin that loads after traditional boot skin has been 1sec on. The system then hangs completely! It never even shows the "loading bar". I am now accessing this board via an Apple iBook. Can someone pls help and tell me at least how to uninstall bootskin? I can access the files if I boot up with another win2kpro install that do
