Thanks Chris,
I'm running PCDJ.
It's older with the 17" screen. It has a fairly standard drive I think.
It's a Toshiba. I know that. I just bought the new drive so
I'm thinking strongly that it's the mobo.
I am trying to get it to boot from USB. Can I do that?

HI Tom,
Is the model still being made? If so you might want to see if a local=20
best buy, compusa, etc have one in stock. buy it swap the hard drive =
out=20
and use it for the gigs then put the drive back in and return . If it=20
old then well you might be screwed if you need it that quick. Will any =
laptop be able to do it?
Can you lug a desktop with you instead?

Chris,
Satellite P4 2.4 USB 2 I think? Originally it had a 40GIG C.
I cloned from Acronis to a 60GIG and it worked perfectly for
2 days. Now it's shutting down or not booting. Acronis
says there's no drive. I remove all power reset and then
the drive will show up but Acronis isn't running! It's one or
the other but not both. I'm thinking the best bet would be the
USB drive that has a working C copy. Can I boot from that
on a laptop? I think I had that working way back when I
made the clone.

Chris,
How can I change the drive letter to C without completely

This one won't let me go below E. I'm guessing all=20

Thad,
Exactly. I am burning all the crucial DJ tunes to spin traditionally.
Thanks for the help. I'll be scrambling tomorrow in the AM for a
comp before I run to the gig.
Sheesh.

Tom,
Sounds like either a mobo issue or the wrong HAL/kernel. The start =
then split
second blue screen then reset can be a hal problem.=20
For now I'd borrow a machine for the weekend and set up your software =
on
it. It will be tough having confidence in the setup if it's this bad =
now.

Good luck, Tom. Not crucial now, but here are the files you need for ACPI
BIOS machines (i.e. everything).
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC
- halacpi.dll (renamed to hal.dll)
- ntkrnlpa.exe
- ntoskrnl.exe
ACPI Uniprocessor PC
- halaacpi.dll (renamed to hal.dll)
- ntkrnlpa.exe
- ntoskrnl.exe
ACPI Multiprocessor PC
- halmacpi.dll (renamed to hal.dll)
- ntkrpamp.exe (renamed to ntkrnlpa.exe)
- ntkrnlmp.exe (renamed to ntoskrnl.exe)¨
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When you're back, and rested, and done with your weekend heart attack I'd
like to ask you a few questions about the DJ software you use. I've been
playing with DJ Deckc (www.djdecks.be) with time code vinyl, but the new
Traktor rig looks interesting. Especially since I wrote the Traktor 2 manual
so I know it pretty well. I'd really like opinions from people more experiences
with the software out there.
Good luck,
TCB

Chris,
Satellite P4 2.4 USB 2 I think? Originally it had a 40GIG C.
I cloned from Acronis to a 60GIG and it worked perfectly for
2 days. Now it's shutting down or not booting. Acronis
says there's no drive. I remove all power reset and then
the drive will show up but Acronis isn't running! It's one or
the other but not both. I'm thinking the best bet would be the
USB drive that has a working C copy. Can I boot from that
on a laptop? I think I had that working way back when I
made the clone.

Thanks Chris,
I'm running PCDJ.
It's older with the 17" screen. It has a fairly standard drive I =
think.
It's a Toshiba. I know that. I just bought the new drive so
I'm thinking strongly that it's the mobo.
I am trying to get it to boot from USB. Can I do that?

Aaron,
This was a backup from two months ago with no problems.
I'm fairly convinced it is a mobo problem. I just bought
an Acer and the tech said he could restore from my
60Gig to the new Acer C drive. All audio is on external
drives that are working fine.
I hope this works. I have to leave in a couple of hours!
I made some backup CDs to pull me through but
it's gonna be ugly for me.
2 hours sleep.

Hi Tom,
Yes it does sound like either motherboard or power supply to me.
If the chipsets between the Acer and yours are close enough then he will
probably be able to pull off the restore.
Good Luck..

Chris,
That's exactly what he said and did. You guys are smart!
It worked like a charm today although I had to uninstall/reinstall
PCDJ. =20
Guess what? I called and emailed tech support and within 15 minutes
the phone rang. 15 minutes later PCDJ was all set with codes.
I don't remember the last time I got that kind of service.
This little Acer Core 2 Duo 1.6 is kicking the Toshiba's 2.4 P4's butt.
The Toshiba has become the backup if I ever get it working again.
