Default While installing Windows ME for dual boot, system halted.

Thank you Mike for insisting I read all the documentation. I read
everything I could and I read this article
http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/kb/article.php?id=201 which told me that
windows me doesnt work on a partition above 128 GB so I moved the partition
to the 2 position just after my 1st partition of 68 GB and everything works
great now. Thank You

Kevin

Kevin,

Just one comment. Read the documentation.

BING will always be deactivated on installing a new operating system but
once reactivated you should experience no further problems. I have
already told you where to obtain help with BING. Have you done so? As
far as I can see you have not since you have posted to none of the
terabyte newsgroups so perhaps you don't really want to solve your
problem.

Any more help??


You could always try following the advice you have been given over the
past few days. g

I tried to reinstall windows me after I reinstalled bootit ng and
this time I put the floppy in the drive when it rebooted the first
time and it gave me the option to "reactivate" so I did and windows
me booted fine the first time. When it booted for the second time i
put the floppy in again and it gave me the option to "reinstall" so
I did but I still got the same error when booting windows me.

Something is causing bootit ng to be deactivated or uninstalled. I
even installed bootit ng on its own partition but I still get the
same problem. Yes, I have read all the instructions and I know the
problem is not with windows me installation, it has to do with the
boot manager not staying active or something.

Any more help??

Thank You
