system
7
Certainly the intention is to get the operating system off the RAID array onto a dual partitioned SSD and add Win 7 to the other half.
Hopefully I can then break the array and re-import my data from backups.
Regarding the errors you mention, NVidia claims the RAID array is “Healthy” and the Smart status didn’t indicate a problem.
In Event viewer I do get a message quite regularly “An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk6\D during a paging operation.”
I think I’ve narrowed this one down to a USB external 1 Tb HDD as it disappears when the disk is unplugged.
I can’t do anything about migrating to SSD though until I’ve bought one, some software for the migration, and more importantly being able to boot to a reliable XP to migrate over.
Thanks for looking into this for me, as I really don’t want to do a complete reinstall of XP and all it’s programs as I need to keep a working system on the go at the moment. Hence the migration of XP and the later adition of Win 7 to gradually move onto a bit at a time.
Any Ideas of where I head from here?
Which were the messages in the addition file which are pointing to HHD problems? I know Mailwasher has the odd issue as I’m running a very early version which does lock up occasionally.
