Catastrophic failure window should give you some explanation (message)...

hi,

win 2000 SP3
message: Can't create log file, after reset all file ( like in Q2 from FAQ) mhdd make log catalogue and wait for port ATA.
address port is 3, after this message Can't access PCI registry ( maybe Windows is running ).
- next message is like "An unhandled exception occured at: 0x00037936 "

MHDD can not work under Windows...

hi,

'll try use mhdd on my pc , start UserPort, next start mhdd...

- but victoria, and HDAt2 working good.

:cry:

It is not a big deal to disable scanning of the PCI bus (or make a command line switch to allow to do that), this will prevent MHDD from crashing on some PCs... But what is the point to run any of such software under Win? :-)

hi,

- i use pure XP, I'll don't like DOS.
- if use DOS, I must make one more partition.

THX for info.

You do not have to make any partition, just download a boot floppy image, or, if you do not have a floppy drive, then download a bootable iso to burn on a CD...

hi,

thx, boot floppy image is working.

:lol:
