  1. Followed instructions LOST EVERYTHING after changing ownership name


    I went through the steps to change ownership name on my HP Laptop. I have lost everything and I see events log with changes made and errors. I can not even use the search engine or anything on my laptop now. Everything is just errors. I can not find a system restore or anything to go back. Please Help me I need my computer badly, I have all my school work and business stuff on it and somehow there is no system restore. I do not know how the backup has also been deleted.Thank you so much.

    :)

  3. Instructions to change board?

    Boot off of the windows CD, repair your XP partition (hopefully you won't have to reinstall windows), install drivers, and you're good to go. You'll see dual channel mode in the BIOS splash screen results from POST. It'll be pretty obvious *Stick Out Tongue Followed instructions LOST EVERYTHING after changing ownership name :p. Here's a list of general tweaks for the 939Dual-SATA2.
    Step one- Set time, date
    Step two- In CPU settings, disable cool n quiet, set memory clock to DDR400, play with memory timings (CAS-TRAS-TRP-TRCD), which are listed in the bios in the order CAS, TRCD, TRAS, and TRP. EDIT- new BIOS's mess around with this order, can't be too sure on it, but yeah at least you know what the RAM timings stand for *Big Grin Followed instructions LOST EVERYTHING after changing ownership name :D.
    Leave MA timing at 2T unless you think your system can handle 1T
    Step three- in Chipset settings, enable onboard LAN, disable onboard Audio, disable AGP fast write, set primary graphics adapter, and set CPU-NB and NB-SB link speed to 1000mhz.
    Step four- in IDE, disable controllers you aren't using. On all drives detected, enable SMART if you can and set PIO/DMA as high as they will go.
    Step five- Enable legacy USB support
    Step six- Set password if you're worried about anyone screwing around with your BIOS settings
    Step seven- Configure your boot sequence. I reccomend hard drive first, optical drive second, and floppy drive third.
    Step eight- Save changes, boot into XP, and enjoy your computer.
