Hi you clever lot on here.
tnx here,messing again.
The other day I got myself a e-SATA to SATA cable. It works a treat. The transfer rate is much quicker than USB2 (I dont have USb3).
So I got to thinking I could install Windows 7 off a HDD connected via the e-SATA port.
Using DISKPART i formatted a 60 gig SATA HDD and copied the installation files to the drive.
I restarted my machine,slung in my spare 80gig SATA HDD which I test stuff out on and booted up from the e-SATA driver.
Wow it installed Windows pretty damn quick.

But….

I get BOOTMGR missing when I unplug the e-SATA and boot from the 80 gig SATA HDD.
Plug the e-SATA drive back in and it boots into Windows.
I have tried unpluging e-SATA and booting from a dvd to repair the boot but it wont work. Dont know why.

What I would like to know……Is there a way to install W7 off a HDD onto an internal HDD without getting any BOOTMGR problems.

I have not tried formatting the e-SATA into Fat32,just NTFS….Would this help somehow.

Is there a way to make the e-SATA "READ ONLY".
What I dont understand is why would windows load the bootMGR onto the drive the install files are on. It just seems daft whay that happens.

Hope this makes sence.

Any tips,advice ??

Cheers..

I have a DELL XP HOME SP2 CD which is quite nice as it has SATA support integrated.
I would like to remove the Dell branding & turn it into an OEM version.
I have an OEM key from a ‘home built’ machine that’s been scrapped, unfortunatly the disc was scrapped too.
Is it possible to do this?

Hello, so I have ipod mini for over a year now, bought it used
I have changed its microdrive drive with 8gb CF card.
And I have a few questions about ipod:

1. which is better pod linux or original OS?
I know podlinux can play videos, but I’m listening to music only.
so are there other advantages, I’m using koss KTXPRO1 on it, so I’m afraid of sound quality of pod linux.

2. will be concerned about battery, I know it needs High power USB port, but I can’t charge on desktop pc at all, it shows that its charging, but when I disconnect from pc it shuts down itself and then reloads OS, so clock and other changes are set to default after that. But it charges from one port on my notebook(I know that it’s High power) but still sometimes charges the same way as said earlier, indicates charging, but when I disconnect it it shuts down itself, its 50/50 when it charges successfully and with problems.
thought it would be failing battery, so changed with battery from creative mp4 player, old one was 500mAh, new one 520mAh, not high difference at all, and still the same, creative with that battery lasts ~8 hours.
Tried with generic 5v 500mA usb charger for the first few cycles ok, then the same, and it all began after I used this generic charger, now thinking of buying original apple charger, but I think that it has the same 5v 500mA output….
maybe someone has any suggestions?
I have thougth about bad cable, but haven’t tried another.
because it seems low possibility of that, if in details: if it would be bad cable problems Data+/- it would not connect to pc, if +5v,or GND it would discharge completely and not turning on, but it lasts even 48hours connected to pc and after this it shows battery almost empty.

Is DAZ loader the safest way to get freely activated Windows Vista/7?

We all know that from time to time Windows sends some information to Microsoft, so my question is: can Microsoft use this information to identify me? Can Microsoft charge me with piracy?

Another question: will DAZ Loader do anything to my BIOS? Suppose if I format my hard-drive afterwards and reinstall Windows, will it cause any problems? (I know loaders make some kind of changes to BIOS SLIC tables… hell i don’t know all these stuffs – i’m a layman at all this!)

I’ve activated Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 2 and Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 on a VM running on VMWare… I want to get an activated copy of Windows 7 running on my PC… If any one of you guys can answer all my questions and give me the green signal, I’ll go ahead and use DAZ Loader on my PC…

Hi everyone I am new here and i am very happy to be with you all
