| In the last month, I have had to explain to three *hacks*
how to get past what I think is a simple problem. These
guys are either self confessed computer experts, shop
technicians or gurus in their own minds, but they don't
know how to deal with this problem.
If you think you know, post an outline of the solution
here, otherwise I will in a few days. Everybody who works
with computers daily needs to know how to do this and it
just surprises me that very few seem to know how.
Problem: You have a Windows 2000, XP or 2003 computer
where the hard disk is perfect but the mainboard is
destroyed or there is some other reason why the hard disk
needs to go to a new machine. When you turn it on, you
get a BSOD advising you to contact the hardware vendor.
I'll give you a clue: The HAL has changed. (Note: If you
need to ask or look up what HAL is then you are highly
unlikely to get the answer).
How do you make the harddisk boot in this new machine and
lose NO DATA? The solution is not to replicate the old
hardware. Yes, that nearly always works, but you are to
assume that you cannot do this.

| How does windows know to install ACPI enabled HAL upon installation?
Why can't you switch between a standard HAL and an ACPI enabled HAL?
How do you know which HAL is installed by windows? List the steps to get
there....
Do you have to reinstall windows if you want to change the HAL type or can
you change the HAL type without doing anything else?
You should be able to answer these simple questions... so are you a *hack* ?
I'm not as nice, I won't post the answers. muahahahahahahaha
- peace.
p.s
reinstall windows over the top otherwise known as an in-place upgrade, hw
gets reenumerated

Reinstall OS without formatiing the HD, and hit F5 during installation to
install the new HAL

hard drive in another Windows 2000, XP or 2003 computer.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I've taken a
perfectly good hard drive with Windows 2000 Pro from one
computer to another with completely different hardware and
it boots just fine (and finds the new hardware)....no BSOD
for me.

| Morning,
1. Check the BIOS to make sure the drive is set for it.
2. This sounds like a video card problem, and should boot into safe mode to
see if this resolves the problem.
3. Do a repair install. after which it fines all the needed hardware.

Hello Frank.
1. Yes.
2. No. It is a problem that occurs when the installation
cannot talk to the installed hardware. ie the mainboard
has changed so the chipset is different, for one.
3. Repair install. No such thing. If you mean repair the
install, the repair option does not work in this case to
get the drive to work again with the new hardware. Try it.
The point of this challenge was to show how a common
problem encounted by anyone working on systems for a
reasonable length of time could be tackled in so many
different ways when only one answer is a good one time
wise and has maximum benefits for the customer in keeping
costs down and basically restoring the data set back to
the point of failure.
Anyone who thinks ripping off the client by charging for
hours of work that can be easily avoided and telling the
client that "The best solution here is to start with a
fresh installation and then we'll try and restore the data
as best as we can but you'd better be prepared for some
data loss" - You need to revisit Ethics 101.
The best solution is sometimes a simple one and doesn't
have to be complex and costly.

Tried to amend my carnivorous habits.
Made it nearly seventy days,
Losin' weight without speed, eatin' sunflower seeds,
Drinkin' lots of carrot juice and soakin' up rays.
But at night I'd have these wonderful dreams
Some kind of sensuous treat.
Not zucchini, fettucini, or bulgur wheat,
But a big warm bun and a huge hunk of meat.
Cheeseburger is paradise.
Heaven on earth with an onion slice.
Not too particular, not too precise.
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise.
I like mine with lettuce and tomato,
Heinz Fifty-seven and French fried potatoes.
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer.
Well, good God Almighty, which way do I steer
For my cheeseburger in paradise.
Heard about the old-time sailor men,
They eat the same thing again and again;
Warm beer and bread they say could raise the dead.
Well, it reminds me of the menu at a Holiday Inn.
But times have changed for sailors these days.
When I'm in port I get what I need.
Not just Havanas or banana or daiquiris,
But that American creation on which I feed.
Cheeseburger is paradise medium rare with mustard'd be nice
Not too particular, not too precise
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise.
I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draught beer
Well, good god Almighty which way do I steer
For a cheeseburger in paradise
Makin' the best of every virtue and vice.
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice
To get a cheeseburger in paradise.
To be a cheeseburger in paradise.
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise

| First I would try to boot from W2K or W2K3 CD or boot disks and see if a
"repair" could possibbly trick the OS into letting you update the new HAL
driver.
Otherwise, just reinstall the OS in the same folder as before and the DATA
should be in same location (as long as not in a Windows OS folder. Or
upgrade OS.
